According to liveonsat (http://liveonsat.com/foot_intl_any.php?start_dd=30&start_mm=11&start_yyyy=2007&end_dd=17&end_mm=02&end_yyyy=2008)there'll be an exhibition match this Sunday.
I've Googled around for info, but haven't found any sites or match previews regarding this friendly.
That leads me to consider two possibilities: a) either the match won't take place, or b) the match is going to be too much of a Mickey Mouse affair for anyone to care (read: teams will be fielded by no-namers and/or celebrities.

Did anyone watch the match or know the result? There is nothing on the PFA or Skysports site.

That's a very loose definition of the word legends.

I agree...Stefan Freund of Germany as the only German? Other than Euro 96 and a CL winner with BvB, not a german legend at all.
Mattheus, Moeller, Hassler, Kohler, Klinsmann, Riedle, Koepke in goal - would have all been better choices!
But any way...what happened? Result and comments??
