Tindall: 'England will build on defeat'
Former England captain Mike Tindall believes that the team will look to build on their 20-15 defeat to New Zealand in Auckland.

Former England captain Mike Tindall has claimed that the team will look to build on their narrow defeat to New Zealand.

A last-gasp try from Conrad Smith saw the All Blacks earn a 20-15 triumph on Saturday in the first of three Tests between the sides.

"England will look to build on it, but they will be bitterly disappointed," Tindall told BBC Sport. "It was one lapse in concentration that has cost them the match.

"They have got to believe and if anything it can give them more confidence that this New Zealand team is human and they can get after them."

England take on New Zealand in the second Test in Dunedin next Saturday.
