England to play Germany & Chile in pre-World Cup friendlies

England will play Germany and Chile in Wembley friendlies in November as part of their World Cup preparations.

Roy Hodgson's team, who beat Poland 2-0 on Tuesday to qualify for Brazil 2014, will face Chile on 15 November before meeting three-time World Cup winners Germany four days later.

Both opponents have also qualified for next summer's tournament.

England have not played Germany since losing 4-1 to them in the second round of the 2010 World Cup finals.

The games will conclude a year in which England have played Brazil, the Republic of Ireland and Scotland in friendlies at Wembley as part of the FA's 150th anniversary celebrations.

Denmark are likely to visit in March for another pre-World Cup game.
