We are in the dark days of very little competitive football before
the world cup starts, but tonight at least there is a game which may be worth
watching. The Toulon tournament (an invitation event for international Under-21
teams) is at the semi-final stage and unbeaten sides England and Scotland meet
in the semi-final. Mexico, who should beat Turkey in the other semi, are also unbeaten
as are the luckless Canada who have to make do with the fifth-place playoff (!)
against France.
England won the same fixture at the same stage 3-0 last year,
so revenge is definitely in the air.
Kick-off is 19:30 (18:30 BST) and the match is live on
Freesports, a relatively new offshoot of Premier sports which is, as the name suggests,
free to view. You can find it on Freeview HD and BT (channel 95), Freesat
(channel 252), Sky (channel 422) and Sky Ireland (if you tune in manually).
