Villa keeper Friedel upset for West Ham No1 Green

American Brad Friedel was upset for West Ham United goalkeeper Rob Green after his England gaffe on Saturday.

Green's howler handed the USA an equaliser in the 1-1 draw.

Villa goalkeeper Friedel, who won 82 caps for the USA, expressed his sympathy for Green.

"It's a horrible feeling," he said. "You know the team in front of you is playing really well, you have the game under control and then something like that happens.

"He'll never make a mistake like that in his career again I would have thought and it is just one of those things.

"Just because you make one mistake, it doesn't make you a bad goalkeeper."
