Apparently Sven has asked the USA to step in after France pulled out.

Australia or Denmark are the likely opponents, France were never considered so I don't know where this has come from.

There are published reports (soccer365.com, etc.) of the USSF's attempt to arrange a match with England, but I've yet to hear word of this from the English side. Hence, we can put this under the 'Rumor' rubric for the moment, can we not?

That said, I, and many other U.S. fans, would anticipate this match more so than against any other world opponent. England has been pure class for so long.
