About the withdrawal from the England national team, defender Wes Brown announced on Sunday evening. The "Man Utd" football player followed the example of goalkeeper Paul Robinson, who was also invited to a friendly match against Hungary but decided not to come and will no longer represent his country. "After long deliberation, with a heavy heart, I decided that it's the right time to step back," said the 30-year-old Brown. "I give way to the younger ones, and I can focus on club football." He added: "It was an honor and a privilege to defend the honor of my country."
