Keir Starmer is confident about England's World Cup chances now...are you?

michaelbrown.ifa95d ago

If that idiot thinks that then we’re doomed

dale.odonnell95d ago

Good job nobody listens to Starmer 😬

antonymmartin8495d ago

Don’t really care what Starmer thinks tbh 😂

Harry Kane has to win the Ballon d'Or this year, right? 🤷‍♂️

dale.odonnell95d ago

Not even the best player at Bayern. It’s Olise for the Ballon d’Or IMO.

markmarston95d ago

If England win the World Cup I think he has to!

jamesshearman2395d ago

If England win the WC, yes. If France win it, Olise.

Harry Kane saves the day for England again😅 Does Thomas Tuchel deserve praise for changing it up in the second half?

What does that comeback say about Thomas Tuchel's England? Contenders or are now more worried about the Mexico game?

dale.odonnell95d ago

The Harry Kane show as predicted before the game. The strike for his second goal was sensational. He saved England in a big way tonight!

kilham.max95d ago

Nah no praise we were rubbish. Kane is the hero 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

This is a legendary performance from Harry Kane. An all-time England great.

86' - WHAT A GOAL FROM KANE!!!! 2-1!!!

That is WORLD CLASS. The captain rifled the ball into the roof of the net from just inside the box. A special goal from a special player.

callum_boyle95d ago

Imagine thinking Harry Kane isn’t world class

And it’s Anthony Gordon again. What a difference he’s made feeding Kane. Yesssss!

Harry Kane goes level with the great Pele in World Cup goals 👑 Is he England best ever World Cup player? If not, who is?

callum_boyle95d ago

He’s up there. Played in the same amount of World Cups as Pele and level on goals already. Very impressive

jackgallagher95d ago

Bobby Moore is no.1 but he might be 2nd

dancoombs95d ago

I think you have to say all 11 starters in 66 are the best and then start the discussion after that

75' - GOALLLL! KANE HAS LEVELLED THINGS UP FOR ENGLAND

The captain comes up trumps for the Three Lions! He nodded home a clever cross from Gordon at the back post.

gaelhj95d ago

Bellingham’s gone off the boil. He needs to bring on Watkins or Toney to liven it up a bit.

70' - Eberechi Eze has come on for Djed Spence.

As a result, it looks like Rice is now playing right-back. Probably should've called up Trent Alexander-Arnold, eh?

67' - Hydration break time! And time for you to rate how worried you are about England on a scale of 1-10 👇

dancoombs95d ago

Down from a 10 to a 9 now Spence is off

61' - Not so fun fact: England have only won one World Cup knockout match they've not scored first in...

The 1966 World Cup final if you're wondering.

jonny95d ago

You’d think England were 3-0 up judging on the intensity they’re playing at

60' - Bukyo Saka and Anthony Gordon on for Noni Madueke and Marcus Rashford

walkercharlie82895d ago

Off go two that wingers that have offered us nothing. On come two wingers that have offered us nothing. So fun.

dantowen8195195d ago

Not sure like for like is the way to go here. I’d drop Kane deeper and put Watkins on

53' - ANOTHER SAVE FROM MPASI

And again it's to deny Bellingham. Not a header this time though, a deflected effort from the left of the penalty area which looked destined for the top corner.

chillout95d ago

Congo, Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, Spain. Yeah, right.

chillout95d ago

😬

vatsal95d ago

Whole strategy built around crossing and heading, and Tuchel left his best crosser and header of the ball home. Nice one.

50' - RASHFORD PULLS JUST WIDE

Rashford burned Wan-Bissaka on the left of the penalty area with a drop of the should, but fired just wide of the near post after doing so. He probably should've did better there.

45' - We're back underway! Surely England improve in this second half...

jameslloyd14.jl95d ago

Don’t need both Anderson and Rice in this game state. Either sub Anderson for Rogers or stick one at right back

chillout95d ago

Don’t hold your breath!

England find themselves 1-0 down at the break 🤨 You are Thomas Tuchel, what is your message to the players?

What changes would you make?

dantowen8195195d ago

What I want - Saka and Mainoo. What I’ll get - Henderson

aikansh95d ago

Also, Rashford has left his shooting boots home for sure!

48' - A TalkingPoints user agrees with the referee on the Kane penalty call...

alan.mayo5195d ago

No penalty. Kane dived. Well spotted by the ref. I thought it was a penalty on first sight.

david.comerford95d ago

The keeper's arms are on the floor, then Kane runs into them. It's not a trip. Kane is so experienced, he knows what he's doing

jameslloyd14.jl95d ago

I thought it should’ve been a pen initially but having seen it again it looks like Kane kicks his own foot. A classic Harry Kane dive

47' - BELLINGHAM DENIED AGAIN

Once again the goalkeeper does well do parry a thumped header from Bellingham from the middle of the box.

chillout95d ago

45 mins left for Kane - or it will be the end of his England career. Tuchel and probably Pickford too.

jonny95d ago

Not relevant but any chance of Rice working up a sweat here? Hes moving so slowly in and out of possession

dale.odonnell95d ago

This is shaping up for a real battle in the second half… 🙌

43' - Be honest: was that a penalty?

walkercharlie82895d ago

You either book him or give a pen. Can't bottle both

dale.odonnell95d ago

Pathetic from Kane. Cheat!

freddie95d ago

Ref has had a STINKER. Said he dived but didn’t book him… was so clear a pen

As England fans we are our own worst critics! Imagine how Congo will be feeling after the last 10 mins, they are hanging on here!

Rumble in the Jungle all over again - just have to hope we wear Congo out.

My worry is if we can’t open up Ghana and Panama, how do we solve a very similar problem here?

We need this break for once… need to play our way into this and focus on sustaining a bit of possession

Agree with a lot of what you’re saying actually! Their keeper, hats off 👏🏻 our defence is very shaky but haven’t got anyone better! Should have taken Maguire!!! Jude has been our best so far, outstanding footballer!

febced194d ago

This is my post-match thought. England played well, but 2 aspects clouded their performance : "DRC's gk was absolutely scintillating, while the England defence is incompetent, with centre back and right back being major problems. Harry Kane, Jude Bellingham and Declan Rice were tops for me,
