LYON, France (Reuters) - England manager Phil Neville has criticised the United States Soccer Federation for breaching etiquette by sending officials to the Lionesses' hotel in Lyon ahead of Tuesday's women's World Cup semi-final.

American team staff visited the England hotel while Neville's side were training on Sunday, with reports saying that their aim was to assess the venue as possible accommodation if they beat England and reach the final.
