USA coach Bob Bradley is expecting a tough Group C at the World Cup where his team will open their campaign in South Africa against England.
Bradley's side also face Algeria and Slovenia but he knows it is their opening fixture which has attracted most attention.
Bradley said: "I think we have a tough group. So much attention has been put on the first group game against England. The spotlight on that game is huge."
Former Fulham defender Carlos Bocanegra, now with Rennes in France, is looking forward to taking on England.
He said: "We get to challenge ourselves against the best in the world.
"We need to concentrate on the group stages first and then after that we will worry about going as far as we can."
