ESPN - The NFL will return to Britain next season.

The league, which held its first regular season game outside North America in London last October, said Thursday it would come back again in 2008.

The teams, date, and venue will be announced during Super Bowl week late this month or in early February.

The New York Giants beat the Miami Dolphins 13-10 in front of 81,176 fans at Wembley Stadium on Oct. 28.

"The game in London was undoubtedly one of the highlights of the entire 2007 season," NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said in a statement. "We had an overwhelmingly positive response to the event from all involved: the teams, our sponsors, and business partners and, of course, the fans themselves." [READ]
