What a calamity!!!

England 1 USA 1

Oh dear, I for one would not like to be in Robert Green's boots this morning or the head of ITV HD channel, one for letting in a calamity goal that even my son could save or for ITV HD not even showing the only decent goal of the match.

It all looked to be going so well with Gerrard scoring in the 4th minute, but then it went downhill, or in the back of the net! When England came back in the second half they did have some chances, but the only thing that really stands out is the save made by Green to save some of his sanity. All high hopes are pinned on the likes of Wayne Rooney, Frank Lampard and Peter Crouch to score the necessary goals but I think Fabio will be working them hard this week before Friday as they all have a lot to prove. Tim Howard, the Everton goalkeeper was given the man-of-the-match award for his cool, calm display. What England would have given for his composure.

England may have drawn, but I am sure a lot of fans will feel like they lost partiucarly with all the Americans  rushing to celebrate with their fans at the final whistle as if they had won.

With Ledley King going off at half time with a groin injury and now a doubt for Friday against Algeria and James Milner not on top form after suffering a stomach bug in the week, Fabio will be having some tough choices to make about his team selection, will he stick with Robert Green or prefer the experience of David James if he is fit enough.
