Euro 2012: England manager Roy Hodgson says win over Ukraine has proved his critics wrong I'm pleased about that. As far as our stays in Ukraine and Poland, I've been delighted with that.  Hodgson added that the England fans were now starting to get behind the team, although he stopped short of predicting England's chances in the tournament. Now we are getting good vibrations from those back home. It's not really a question of expectations. We want to keep going and try and enjoy this tournament for as long as we can. England were helped to victory yesterday by a stroke of luck when Marko Devic had a goal disallowed even though his second-half shot appeared to cross the line before it was hooked clear by John Terry. But Hodgson said that his team deserved the luck they got, especially after suffering their own misfortunes in major tournaments such as Frank Lampard's disallowed goal against Germany in the 2010 World Cup. We don't have goal-line technology and, even with slow motion, people can't be 100% certain, If it was over the line then that was a slice of luck. We've suffered pretty much bad luck in those areas, against Portugal and Germany, so if it was good luck today then we got it. Hodgson heaped praise on Wayne Rooney who scored in the 48th minute after missing a golden opportunity in the first half. Rooney has now scored 29 goals for England He's got character, hasn't he? Said Hodgson Those who have followed England and Manchester United, even Everton, you know what Rooney is, what he can do and his qualities. He showed them in abundance tonight
