The most anticipated soccer game in plenty of years took place on Saturday as the United States faced England in the 2010 World Cup betting in South Africa. It was the beginning game for each team in Group C and was viewed on ABC television. Even though the US and England have met in friendlies over the years, this is the 1st game that has mattered for anything since the United States surprised England 1- in the 1950 World Cup. England is favored to win Group C while the United States is also anticipated to advance.

England is a 1-goal favorite with a total of 2.5 at SBG Global.

England was favored in this game but the United States was in fact given a chance to compete. In past years, the US squad was pretty much ignored and regarded as substandard but not this time. The U.S. beat Spain a year ago and nearly upset Brazil, proving that they can play with the best teams in the world. Landon Donovan, Tim Howard and Clint Dempsey are some quite good participants on the United States squad. This is considered a better US squad than it was four years ago when the United States didn’t make it out of the group stage. The U.S. squad was trying quite hard not to get too high or too low for this game against England because the other two matches against Slovenia and Algeria will probably determine if they advance. The United States has played well in friendlies leading up to the World Cup while England has not. Since friendlies are actually not a quality indication of how teams will do in the World Cup, that may not matter much, though.

England has among the best scorers in the world in Wayne Rooney, and they are among the faves to win the World Cup probabilities. They also have other superb participants like Steven Gerrard, Frank Lampard and John Terry. England has an outstanding head coach in Fabio Capello and he will have his squad prepared. He has won a championship in almost half of his 16 seasons as a coach. England will long for captain Rio Ferdinand nevertheless they have plenty of depth and should be fine.

The three-way soccer betting line at SBG Global has England at -200, the United States at 570 and the Draw at 280.

Much like the other matches played on the beginning day of the World Cup, this game also ended in a draw. In a lot of ways though, this 1 was far more exciting. England landed their point early on, in the 1st four minutes of play. But only 40 minutes in, before the end of the 1st half, the US’s Clint Dempsey made a shot at the goal that can happen to be blocked easily. Nevertheless, England’s goalkeeper Robert Green misjudged the ball’s velocity and let it get beyond him, awarding the US their sole point. That mistake undoubtedly should not have happened, and it cost England the victory on Saturday’s match. Fortunately both England and the US are still surviving in the World Cup.
