World Cup Fever Hits Tunis American Embassy

The American Embassy in Tunis invited the British Council teachers to watch England's first match against the USA.
Were there going to be enough beers for the Americans to drown out their sorrows?
Could Rooney hold back from swearing and cursing at the referee and getting red carded?
Was Beckham's inside knowledge on the Americans likely to help us defeat them?Well,after promised to be an excellant start with a goal in the fourth minute a dreadful lack of concentration by Robert Green let slip a relatively tame shot by Dempsey into an equaliser goal for the USA.What a blunder!Obviously still a bit green in his international goalkeeping experience.On the other hand the USA's goalmouth was in safe hands with Tim Howard's,despite being injured in a clash with Heskey.England had a few chances but failed in their finishing pass or shot.Well Rooney kept his cool but then on the whole he was subdued apart from an off the target shot and an optimistic header.Crouch came on for the last few minutes but perhaps he should have on sooner.In fact victory was almost snatched by a quick run against play with a shot by Jozy Altidore,luckily for England ,Green managed to push the ball against the post.
