Roy Hodgson says he will make changes to England's starting XI for their final match of the 2014 World Cup.
With the Three Lions already eliminated after two defeats in Group D, the manager wants to deploy some of his squad players against Costa Rica in Belo Horizonte on Tuesday.
Speaking to media in Rio de Janeiro on Sunday evening, Hodgson said: "I will be changing the team to play Costa Rica and giving players a chance who haven't featured in the first two games."

Hodgson hopes the younger players will not be scarred by the last few days.
"I would like to think not, I would like to think the opposite. The experiences we've had here have been incredibly valuable," he said. "They can take a lot from it, learn a lot from it and grow as a result of it."
The former Fulham and West Brom boss does not want too much negative attention to be paid on two tight defeats, but admits they will shoulder the responsibility.
"I've been working for two years on a fairly regular basis over 30-odd games it's very hard to suddenly give an answer that everything is right, everything is wrong on the basis of two games," he said.
“We're such a young side and there are so many players that have only just burst onto the scene”

"I'm afraid when you're in football a long time you just have to accept that these things do happen to you.
"I think it would be better to read into the way these players have behaved, the way they've conducted themselves in these last five or six weeks, the way they've prepared for the matches, and to be, if anything, optimistic with the level of progression that I think we have because we're such a young side and there are so many players that have only just burst onto the scene.
"These games were very important, we were desperate to do well in them, we didn't, we lost and we bear the responsibility. No one's trying to shy away from that, no one's trying to put the blame on anybody else."
