It was a given from the moment Hodgson voiced some mild concerns about Amazonian humidity, thereby incurring the delightfully outspoken wrath of the mayor of Manaus, that England would be drawn to play at least one of their matches in Brazil's interior at next year's World Cup. And so they will, having drawn Italy first up in the vast illuminated crocodile-skin lozenge that is the brand new 40,000 capacity Arena Amazonia. After the draw Hodgson appeared before the BBC television cameras looking gloomily resigned to making the best of England's 3,000-mile round trip into the heart of darkness. “I'm optimistic,” England's manager said, looking wan, pale, fretful and generally drained of all hope, and continuing to bring to mind, surprisingly given his own safari-suited air of cosmopolitanism, the kind...
