England confirm Brazil clash

The game will take place on 14th November in the Khalifa international Stadium.

“To play a team like Brazil will be important for us,” said Capello.

“We can understand more about ourselves and the level we must reach by playing the best teams.

“We have played Spain, Holland, Germany and France, some of the best teams in the world. In each of these games we have also played away from home, which is important before South Africa.

“One of the benefits of securing qualification against Croatia is that we can start to plan for the World Cup and this match is one part of our plans.”
