The game is over, but now the analysis starts. United States tied with England. I have with me several fans from both camps who watched this. Let's start with Andy Pope; he played with US men's national team in several World Cups. What do you think, one-one?
I think it is a great start for the Unites States; our next two games are against Nigeria and Slovenia. England was the big game; certainly we think that we have a chance to beat Nigeria and Slovenia, and get through to the second round.
All right, another American.
Yeah, I couldn’t agree more. I think we'll have a little bit of hunger coming for a victory after this tie, we had our chances, and I think we'll have a good shot in the next game.
Will you repaint for Nigeria and Slovenia or leave it as it is as a good-luck term.
Well, I'll leave it.
Okay.
Err, here's the English, here they come. They didn't win in 1776, and they didn't win in 1950. What you think? Your analysis…
I think it's a fair result. I think these teams have chances of England’s traditional slow-start. But I think it's a good result for both teams. And both will be acting aggressively to the next round.
Emotionally, what do you take away from this tie?
Emotionally, I think it is what I expected, to be honest.
You were doubting that English team which always had its critics because they don't come through in the big sports.
Like I say, they always have a slow start. So let’s look towards the next game, and I think it was a good atmosphere here, and I think it was a great result.
Will you depaint because of the one-one misery for English fans?
Oh, absolutely we're not, absolutely we're not. Loyalty to the team has got to stay, no matter what I mean...
Who is going to get out of this group?
Sorry?
Who is going to get out of this group stage among the four teams?
I would say the USA and England. Absolutely.
All right. Andy Pope, the former player. Who do you see getting out of the group now after this one -one tie?
USA and England, absolutely. I think we got a great result for this game, and we want to beat the next two teams. And we are on, we are on. Anything could happen at this point. |
