World Cup: USA v. England

By Big Tent Democrat

Starting lineups:

USA Lineup: Tim Howard, Steven Cherundolo, Oguchi Onyewu, Jay DeMerit, Carlos Bocanegra, Landon Donovan, Michael Bradley, Ricardo Clark Robbie Findley, Jozy Altidore, Clint Dempsey

England Lineup: Robert Green, Glen Johnson, Ledley King, John Terry, Ashley Cole, Aaron Lennon, Frank Lampard, Steven Gerrard, James Milner, Wayne Rooney, Emile Heskey

First lineup was wrong. Apologies. Not happy with Findley. I preferred Buddle or Gomez. Also I prefer Holden to Clark.

Go USA!

HALFTIME - On the worst error by a keeper that I have ever seen, USA is tied with England 1-1. That said, Bradley has the wrong lineup imo. Holden should be in, not Clark. Clark brings nothing. Holden will defend (Gerrard, who has been the best player on the field, beat Clark for England's goal.) Gomez or Buddle should be in for Findley, who also is useless in this game. The English keeper is obviously very weak and the USA needs more shots on goal. Buddle or Gomez will bring that. Finally, I hope Howard is ok.
