Reception


The PlayStation version received unfavorable reviews according to the review aggregation website GameRankings.[4]

Next Generation said, "If you're looking for speedy, no-nonsense physical play, you could do a lot worse than Alexi Lalas International Soccer."[10]

Extreme Playstation rated the game an 85 of 100 stating that " Three Lions doesn't boast great graphics and has a few niggling flaws(like the omission of any type analog control), but there's enough innovation and gameplay here to give the other World Cup bandwagon games a run for their money[14]
