It was expected that the homeland of the Queen Mother gives a lesson to that of Uncle Sam But none of it: England, a favorite of the competition was held in check by the U.S. (1-1).
This match had everything back in the great history between the nation that invented football and that that football is still trying to colonize. Except that is more likely to stick to the story: that of Robert Green. In the 40th minute of the England-USA, American Fulham Dempsey turns on itself at 20 meters and transmit a hit to left that will safely accommodate the porter directly from the Perfidious Albion. But Green forgets its fundamentals and a lack of beautiful hand-deliver the Americans in the game, when they were dominated from the fourth minute, the fault on a goal by Gerrard.
Barely recovered from his emotions, Green had a greater chance of pushing the hits on his post Altidore (65th). Not sure if the tabloids are happy with it ... Because it is almost indisputable: the balls are sore custodian typically English to the point of becoming legendary. Obviously, even Fabio Capello at the helm of the English team for two years, does not seem to have found the solution. Between forty David James, also known by the nickname 'Calamity James' and Joe Hart, a promising but inexperienced, the Italian technician had confidence in Robert Green, West Ham goalkeeper. A fair compromise "he said ...
And the last bastion English should not be the only site Capello during this World Cup. His defense has lost Ledley King, out through injury, while captain of Tottenham was his place in the last minute to pass by Ferdinand, moved back. The midfielder was mostly passed, and the attack hit ineffective. Rooney has struggled, while Heskey has deflected Crouch is even back, nothing is done. After Gerrard's opening goal, the English have been gladdened Howard, the American goalkeeper and resident of the Premier League for seven years (Manchester United, Everton). And he never cracked. Now Capello is just curse Howard is not naturalized.
