Benidorm World Cup Warm-up

USA goalie Kasey Keller

Football aficionados can dust off their bob-hats, scarves and rattles for a pre-World Cup warm-up in La Nucia this weekend. Kicking off at 15.00 hours at the town's sports ground, two big names from the mighty German Bundesliga, VfL Borussia Mönchengladbach and VfL Bochum will go head to head in a friendly match.

Both teams are filled with internationals who are from, and have played, all over the world, USA goalie Kasey Keller and ex Inter Milan player Thomas Helveg to name but two.

So, if anyone's in Benidorm over the weekend, why not go along and make a detailed report for Sven Goren Eriksson who could probably do with a low-down on England's possible World Cup Final rivals.
