FA chairman Greg Dyke appeared to suggest England's chances of winning the World Cup could be dead already after making a throat-slitting gesture upon learning of the nightmare draw facing Roy Hodgson's side.

England will play Italy in their opening game of the World Cup in Manaus, the sweltering jungle city, and will also face Luis Suarez's Uruguay and Cost Rica in Group D.

Upon learning England's fate, Dyke moved a finger across his neck in a throat-slashing gesture that appeared to suggest he felt the Three Lions were in deep trouble.
