Audio By Carbonatix

Mario Balotelli says he wants a kiss from the Queen if he scores the goals that help keep England's World Cup alive.

The Italy striker made the cheeky proposal as England's fate now lies in Italy's hands following Thursday's 2-1 defeat by Uruguay.

Balotelli will line up for against Costa Rica on Friday knowing a victory will not only put Italy on the verge of qualification for the last-16 but will give Roy Hodgson's side some hope of joining them as group runners-up.

England will go out if Italy lose to or draw with Costa Rica or if Italy beat Costa Rica but fail to beat Uruguay on Tuesday.
