The United States could have some fans from northwest England
cheering on the team at this year's World Cup.
American Landon Donovan is on loan at Everton from Major
League Soccer and says supporters of the Premier League club
chanted "U-S-A, U-S-A" every time he took a corner kick in his
debut at Arsenal last weekend.
Donovan says "It was awesome. From Day 1 everyone has been
very welcoming."
Donovan could make his home debut at Goodison Park against
Manchester City on Saturday but his stay in England looks as if it
will be a short one. He is scheduled to head back the United States
for the Los Angeles Galaxy's opening MLS game on March 27.
Donovan is contracted to the club through 2013.
