Manchester United legend Gary Neville makes England admission following World Cup draw

Manchester United legend Gary Neville believes England will feel apprehensive going into the 2022 World Cup, with the draw on Friday revealing they could face a home nation in the group stage.

The Three Lions will play the USA, Iran and either Scotland, Ukraine or Wales. As a result of the draw, they avoided the likes of Germany, Uruguay and the Netherlands.

Neville, who won 85 caps for England, told Sky Sports: "We've seen it in recent tournaments, Wales as well, Scotland was a very difficult game in the last Euros and Wales we just nipped past a few years ago.

We have great fans with England as well but those two travel particularly well.
