Manchester City<\/a> midfielder James Milner<\/a> has admitted he was at fault for Switzerland<\/a>‘s second goal during the 2-2 draw<\/a> with England<\/a> on Saturday.<\/p>\n

The winger broke from a two-man wall to allow Tranquillo Barnetta’s free-kick to elude Joe Hart and fly into the near corner of the net.<\/p>\n

It put the Swiss 2-0 up in the Euro 2012 qualifier, but goals from Frank Lampard and Ashley Young earned Fabio Capello’s side a precious point.<\/p>\n

\u201cI thought they were going to take it short so I moved out of the wall giving Harty no chance. So I was poor as well,” Milner said according to the Mirror<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\u201cI hold my hands up for the second goal. But it is how you react to that, and I thought we reacted well.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut we will have a rest now then come back and try to improve again and play our hearts out. It is in our hands if we win those three games.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are more than capable of beating anybody on our day so we have got to learn from our mistakes and prove it.\u201d<\/p>\n

After the game Capello claimed his players were tired after a long domestic and European season but Milner disagreed with the Italian.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are no excuses,” he said. “We were slow out of the blocks and gave away a couple of soft goals. But all credit to the lads, we bounced back quickly.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the second half we had more than enough chances to win. If we were not getting them I would be a bit more worried about not winning games.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut we can take a couple of positives.\u201d<\/p>\n
