31st May 2005: International Friendly (2004x72)


Air date: May 31, 2005

Colombia v England. The Giants Stadium in New Jersey is the venue as England play the second and final friendly of their American tour. Sven-Goran Eriksson 's men have never lost against Colombia and were 2-0 winners when they last met at the 1998 World Cup. But the South American team's attacking flair has upset the world's best teams in recent years, and England can expect a big test ahead of next year's World Cup finals in Germany, with a squad that's missing several first-choice players.
