The usually unflappable Hodgson said: 'I can only hope we don't make the same mistakes in the League.
'We gifted our opponents the result. I'm very angry about it. Every day in training we make certain the players get the message with regard to their attacking and defending.
'Against Torino we saw signs of what we wanted and on those occasions we saw a good team. When we didn't see signs of it, we saw a pretty team. I want a winning team.'
With new recruit Andrew Johnson watching from the stands, the few positives for boss Hodgson came from how Seol Ki-Hyeon laid on goals for Bobby Zamora and Zoltan Gera, and a brilliant point-blank save by Mark Schwarzer from Aimo Diana.
