England goalkeeper Robert Green has reacted in style to England's World Cup draw, as they were drawn with the United States for the second time in 12 years.England will also be joined by Iran and either Ukraine, Scotland or Wales, but the last time they faced the US in this competition it made for a memorable moment for Green. Although England were overwhelming favourites to win the group, they finished second behind the US on goal difference.That's partially down to an awful blunder as Green spilled the ball into his own net to gift the US a crucial goal in their clash against England, handing top spot over to their group rivals.
