A disappointing watch and difficult to disagree with the pundits. Ghana's game plan was obviously to sit back in a low block to thwart England and take their chances when they could to try and snatch a winner and they have to be given credit for they way they executed this plan which is particularly hard to keep up over 90 mins. Possession percentage means nothing in games like this but England were too ponderous at times, didn't move the ball about quickly enough and weren't incisive enough. To be fair, I think Tuchel got the subs right and the introduction of Saka and O'Reilly especially began to create more chances- though all a little too late. On any other day, Kane might have buried that chance but then, on any other day, Ghana should have had a penalty. As Kane said in his post match interview, it is what it is and with the game against Panama coming up soon, they still stand a very good chance of finishing top of their group.
