Russia's coach Guus Hiddink has insisted he has no regrets over deciding to coach Russia rather than England. Hiddink was linked with the England job shortly before McLaren was appointed, but chose Russia instead.
Hiddink confirmed a 'slight approach' had been made by the Football Association, who eventually elevated Eriksson's assistant Steve McClaren to the post.
Hiddink said, "And it is not for that fact that it is a special game tomorrow - it is always special to play in England. When you can play at Wembley it is always special."
Hiddink then later added, "It was very honourable at that time to hear that but I had given my word to the Russian federation. I don't regret it."
