England's worst ever friendly - humbled by the Aussies at Upton Park

from The England Pod · host The England Pod

Ali, George and Dave travel back to 2003 for a look at England's 3-1 defeat to Australia at Upton Park, a match which is perhaps more famous for being 17-year-old Wayne Rooney's senior debut. It's also infamous for Sven making eleven subs at half-time, Francis Jeffers scoring on what would be his only cap, and you might be surprised to see how handy the Aussie XI was that evening too.
