World Cup Friendlies: Sunday Preview

In preparation for South Africa, several World Cup bound teams are playing in friendlies today to physically warmup and mentally prepare for the juggernaut tournament this summer. Â Amongst today's games, fans can look forward to seeing former England coach Sven Eriksson's Ivory Coast for the first time since he was hired, if Nigeria can overcome the off-field distractions that have plagued their World Cup preparations, if Japan can respond to positively versus England after being booed off the field by their own fans or if Tunisia can record a win over their former colonial ruler (France) at home.
