London, Oct 17 (IANS) England will host Germany at the Wembley Stadium in a friendly next month as part of their preparations for the FIFA World Cup.
The Football Association (FA) expects Roy Hodgson’s team, who beat Poland 2-0 to qualify for next summer’s tournament in Brazil, to face the three-time World Cup winners Nov 19, reports Xinhua.
England will also play a non-European nation, either Argentina or Australia, earlier in the same week. Then Denmark are likely to visit Wembley in March for another pre-World Cup game.
England have not played Germany, who qualified for Brazil with an unbeaten record in Group C of the qualifiers, since losing 1-4 to them in the Round of 16 of the 2010 World Cup finals.
