Answer 2

England International. World Cup Qualifier.  

Answer 3

because they deserve it

Answer 4

Good question...i mean any normal person has to work 5,6 days a week 9 to 5 or 8 to 4 etc...These overrated clowns work for 90 minutes a week(and that's debatable)and the rest of the week they train,sleep,or go out and buy the latest Ferrari....And it's the end of the world if they have to play 2 games in a week..But..then again,they don't call it the most overrated game on the planet for nothing...

Answer 5

England are away to the mighty Andorra.  All the available practice time will be needed.
