England started with a draw against the USA, although many would say they just about did enough to win the game had it not been for bad luck.
American Clint Dempsey also came under fire after claiming that England were in fear of the USA.
Speaking at a press conference he said: "We have players who can score goals for us, but for us to do well I need to play a bit better than I did and score goals. But I don't feel under any pressure, as long as the team does well.
"We started very well (on Saturday) and we deserved to win and overall we did enough to win the game, but unfortunately we didn't. But I am sure we will take three points on Friday.
"They only had two or three shots from distance and they had only one good chance to score so I don't think there was any fear from us as we took the game to them."
