The Mestalla Stadium was known as "The World's Best Football Stadium", but this title should have been the "Crimson Court".
The former world's best stadium's dressing room had a great soundproofing effect. Even if there was roaring noise outside, no sound could be heard from inside once the doors were shut.
However, the Mestalla Stadium dressing room was not quiet at all. The highlights of England's 4-2 victory over Portugal on the big-screen LCD TV and the passionate voice of BBC TV ace, John Motson, echoed through the spacious dressing room.
In the pre-match dressing room, music played with Motson's voice in the background. The players changed into their jerseys and glanced up to the television screen from time to time.
This was arranged by Twain on purpose. Even though the match with Germany was a game that did not require much motivating of his players, he still wanted to be safe.
