World Cup” England and US fans disagree over who will keep James Corden host after a goalless match
After Friday’s draw in Qatar, both US and England soccer fans engaged in a Twitter battle over who gets to keep James Corden.
That’s three times and counting that the teams have met on soccer’s biggest stage and England is still waiting for its first win against the Americans at a competitive tournament.
Gareth Southgate had already reminded his team of this record, the US having won 1-0 in 1950 and drawing 1-1 in 2010. They didn’t seem to heed his warning and didn’t respond to Gregg Berhalter’s young and energetic team.
To prove its place as one of the tournament favorites, England defeated Iran 6-2 in their opening game in Qatar. The US could have considered itself lucky to not lose another match after Christian Pulisic struck the crossbar in the first half and Weston McKinnie hit a shot from eight yards.
