<p><br /> England fans left Cape Town disappointed as the national side drew their second World Cup group game against Algeria in South Africa.<br /> </p><p><br /> The performance was lacking in urgency and creativity and chances limited to a few scraps.<br /> </p><p><br /> An organised and energetic Algerian team were happy to concede territory while limiting opportunities on goal. Frank Lampard failed to put away England's best chance in a half that saw them largely restricted to speculative efforts from Steven Gerrard, Gareth Barry and Wayne Rooney.<br /> </p><p><br /> The second half began in much the same fashion with England lacking invention, movement and making simple errors.<br /> </p><p><br /> England finally created a decent chance when Aaron Lennon crossed tantalisingly, only for defender Rafik Halliche to nod behind with Rooney closing in. Emile Heskey later saw a shot deflected over the bar, with Steven Gerrard's header forcing a save from the resulting corner.<br /> </p><p><br /> In the 58th minute, Jamie Carragher was booked for a dubious tackle on Yebda - the resulting freekick deflected wide.<br /> </p><p><br /> England must now win their final game against group leaders Slovenia in order to reach the last 16 of the tournament.<br /> </p>
