Makes the US - IRN encounter particularly tasty now. Obviously tonight's game still has to be played first. England have never beaten USA in the World Cup.

29 Jun 1950 USA 1 England 0
12 Jun 2010 USA 1 England 1

The 1950 game has its own Wikipedia page

Did you see that one live Mike? :) ;)
Cheeky. :D

Although it is part of folklore like our 1966 World Cup win. Whenever we get knocked out we can always cheer ourselves up by replaying our most glorious day. And that was also before I was born. Before you ask ;)

This is a very good nil-nil so far. Means England will qualify barring a 4-0 defeat to Wales on Tuesday.

So now we advance with a win over Iran or a draw versus Iran and a lost by Wales right?

Absolutely this. Had you lost tonight all kinds of complicated math would have come into play, including a possible win over Iran not being enough if Wales would have scored more goals than you against England who would have been able to rest their entire team.

All simple now, I think you will go through. No time for nil-nils now

We we have scored 1 goal in 3+ hours so I will believe it when I see it. Not beating Iran which is by far our biggest enemy the past 50 years would not be be good.

Well, good luck tonight. I am not predicting any nil-nils for once. Last games in the group always seem to produce twists and turns and it will prove to be an entertaining night

Winner of Group gets to play Senegal and runner-up has a tough one against Netherlands.

I go for 2-1 England and 2-1 USA. Got a boost on the odds 120/1.

C'mon England, C'mon USA.
