Today's matches aren't as interesting as yesterday's batch, but there is some intrigue today. We've got an international friendly, a top-ten international side taking on a Brazilian club team, and a high-profile charity match are the leading matches of the day.
Also, for those of a more club football frame of mind, there's a couple of interesting MLS matches today. The LA Galaxy are taking on Chivas USA in the "SuperClasico" between MLS' two Los Angeles based clubs at 8 PM EST, preceded by the big Northeast derby at 5 PM EST when the New England Revolution host Thierry Henry and the New York Red Bulls.

It's Mamadou Sakho time! France hasn't left the continent yet, and are playing one last match in Lille against a decent Jamaican side. France still have some issues to iron out, but they should still be able to walk through Group D and in to the knockout rounds without too much effort. Today we see what kind of progress they've made, and watching Sakho is always all kinds of fun.
Italy v. Fluminese

There's no Liverpool action here, but watching an international side take on an in-season club team is always an interesting dynamic. Making it more interesting is that Cesare Prandelli has already announced the lineup that Italy will use, and it's decidedly a B team lineup that could line up in any of a few different formations. Does the match mean anything? No. But it'll be fascinating to see how it shakes out, especially with Prandelli doing everything he can to shake the "Italy plays boring defensive football" cliche.
