England, Viagra secret weapon against Mexico at the World Cup?

The tabloid The Sun suggests a remedy for the Three Lions’ selection. The players, the newspaper says, could perhaps take Viagra. The drug is not included in the list of prohibited substances of the world anti-doping agency, Wada. “Studies have shown that, by reducing blood pressure in the lungs, the drug counteracts the tiredness and dizziness felt at high altitudes,” writes The Sun, specifying that “there is no evidence to suggest that the England players are actually thinking of taking Viagra, a drug best known for treating erectile dysfunction.” England will have just 2 days to get used to the conditions in Mexico City after leaving their headquarters in Kansas City. In the Mexican capital, the English selection will stay in a top secret hotel: the aim is to prevent the Mexican fans from creating chaos at night by disturbing the players’ sleep.
