I really do hope England wins this game as I'm really on a hiding to nothing here. If we win, then it's expected, but if we lose, I won't hear the end of it. Well, given that there will only be three people in the US watching the game, I suppose I could just avoid them and then I wouldn't hear about it.

I want to vote for a draw. England are notoriously slow starters and the USA are only a few places behind in the FIFA rankings, has 0-0 written all over it.

Analysis:

Mr O did indeed point out the fatal flaw in my vote options in that I didn't allow for a draw. I did actually realize this myself before I read the comment, but didn't bother to change it. I went with the fact that the question was really looking for who you wanted to win. Well, the votes went to England, but the result was a draw.

I have to say, Green should just walk out the dressing room and keep going. I'm sure there will be those who feel sorry for him or have sympathy, but this is international football. No room for mistakes and that was about as big a mistake as they come.
