England vs. USA (1-1) World Cup Thread

.
Where is BooMan for the BIG MATCH?

Remember 1950 World Cup in Brazil: a shocking 1-0 victory for USA.

40′ DEMPSEY (USA) scores!!

GERRARD (ENG) nudges England in front with a well-worked early opener!!
LAMPARD (ENG) worked the ball across to HESKEY (ENG), who justified his
place in the line-up with an intelligent ball through to the Liverpool skipper,
who flicked the ball past HOWARD(USA) with the outside of his right foot.

4′ GERRARD (England) scores!!

More to follow …

"But I will not let myself be reduced to silence."

goalie was a TANK. “Thou shalt not pass” said he commanded the ball, over and over.

I really dug how he used his entire body to capture and ground the ball, no hesitation. Unlike that poor chap on the British end, who tried to stop the ball with his hands and crawled after it like a begging lover, to fail in protecting his goal.
