Capello: We were shattered! England boss blames a long season for woeful show against Switzerland

First, the forward — whose finishing was once compared by Spurs manager Harry Redknapp to his wife Sandra — was foiled one-on-one by goalkeeper Diego Benaglio.

Capello admitted he was annoyed with the two Switzerland goals, the first a whipped cross from 30 yards which went straight in past Hart and the second a shot which went through the two-man wall of Theo Walcott and James Milner and was helped into the net by Hart's leg at the near post.
