There is going to be a battle over football in the Far East between Brazil and England tomorrow morning but it will be no less intense at a flat in Hove Street.

Passionate England supporter Darren Pollard will be rooting for David Beckham and the boys while his Brazilian-born wife, Patricia, will be backing her country.

Their young son, Josh, does not know whether to be an English apple or a Brazil nut but, either way, he is soon going to have only one parent enjoying the fruits of success.
