The denizens of England have turned their thoughts away from Queen Elizabeth II and towards Three Lions captain Steven Gerrard, who has eclipsed her royal highness in total searches twice in the run-up to the tournament.

The U.S. might be more interested in the World Cup than ever, but Germany has registered twice as many searches for German-born USMNT coach Jurgen Klinsmann than America has.
