I fail to see how England will lose this.

I won't be watching, because I don't have Sky.

The U.S. has a decent soccer team. It should be a good match.

I will be playing footy but might be home in time for the end (although I doubt it's on cable tv here)

I miss playing soccer. We played the other day in the morning for an hour but only with like 8-10 people. Not really too fun because I was the only decent player on the field and schooled everyone. It was too easy and not very fun.

I love this time of year, I'm playing 3 times a week.

By the way, FIFA has England ranked 6th in the world and the U.S.A. is ranked number 10.

The rankings are a load of crap in fairness, the US aren't terrible by any means but they're no way top 10. The quality of teams that the USA has to play in comparison to England is laughable.

That said, I'm predicting 1-1 or 2-1 to England, nothing more than that.

Is that the full strength USA squad? The England one's lacking quite a few of the usual group.

They should win but I'd never expect them to win easily with the full squad never mind this one.

2-0, Keiron Richardson again.

LOL 2-0 to England, with a 2nd fiddle side, and USA dominating possession. I don't suppose there are highlights on Match of the Day? I'm listening on 5 Live.
