Obvious setup, england threw the game. Bookies made a tonne of cash. Terrible game. Manager wasn't pissed off at the poor quality of play…all set up. Disgrace
Left or right will depend on the speed of the players
Are English faster than Ghana?
No

Same to me
I don't see any negativity in draw
Nothing went wrong, this is ENGLAND!๐
Love Troy – super honest.
What went wrong? The referee didnโt give them enough to win! Ghana should have got a penalty
What a stupid analysis from the so called referee.
FIFA referees wants to be 110% sure whether a challenge warrant a penalty or not? ๐
What is VAR there for then ? ๐
You either follow the rules that they put in place or not, and clearly they aren't.
The challenge made by the English keeper towards the ghana striker!?
The rules are simple.
If the keeper leaves his area and goes for the ball but instead hits the striker is a red card, all day long.
There's no need for 110% proof there.
We all saw what happened.
Why wasn't he given a red card?
This england team would have to get much better to even get past say , the quarters! Would the other best teams have done way better against a low block? This isn't " coming home" (god I hate that song and chant.. has done a lot of emotional damage to fans!!๐)
England have NEVER, really lived up to the expectations, put on them, have they.
Let's stop singing that stupid song and just enjoy the football and the world cup… Please!
Love our coach Queiroz because he is 100 percent correct VAR went for a coffee…Adu got taken down by Konsa…clear penalty and Pickford should have got a clear red card ๐ฌ๐ญ ๐ฌ๐ญ ๐ฌ๐ญ ๐ฌ๐ญ ๐ฌ๐ญ ๐ฌ๐ญ
comes to a point when i don't support my own country in the world cup
.,.,
๐๐England was so much lucky; Ghana should have had a penalty and England a RED CARD๐ฏ๐ฏ
better luck next time englandโคโค๐๐
The english obviously played with 12 men. Your coach should thank the Ref for saving his job. To Ghana keep fighting and continue to force your oponents to play nonsense
funny thing were it for england it would 100 percent given….even konsa said he acted wrong but later apologised
There was no "slight doubt" about that penalty call. It was stonewall. It had less to do with the merits of the claim and all to do with FIFA's desperation to keep the "big teans" apart until the quarters. You can't have an African country send the mighty England into the tough half of the draw to maybe go out in the last 32 or 16. And look at the decisions that have gone Argentina's way. Can't have Messi out before the semis at least, and I venerate Messi, the GOAT! Infantino makes Blatter look like a mendicant friar. ๐ฎ๐ช
Troyed valued at 250mill in 2 days market, nor 250 mill of talent, am not interested in what a woman referee is saying, she's a fifa puppet 2 cover there mistakes, there should b no change in everday football 2 world cup football, she's says the referee didn't have a good angle, thats why var is there
60yrs of footballs coming home, if the footballing gods r smiling ENGLAND will not win world cup, as like arsenal in champions league against PSG, if the won it u won't hear the end of it 4 another 60yrs, 3 big calls all in England's favour, pickford lucky man, England player covers mouth talking 2 opponent & a stonewall penalty, palmer & foden didn't deserve 2 b in any squad at world cup on last years form
What a lot of moaning. I reckon if this was a competition about moaning, England would win, no contest.
Ghana counter attacked and they had chances. England should have won anyway although some calls were arguable.
Come on. The english team got one point and thar's they needed. They controlled the ball and Set low the speed of game. They are able to give more energy in the next crucial games. That wasn't what the fans expected but excaustion doesn't lead to the finals.
Ghana was robbed
The Co-GOAT Messi has more goals than the whole England team.
But hey, who tops the group?
Oh, its 3 ๐ฆ = Be Happy & Trust in boss TT. He will get em rolling like a rolls royce in the KO's.
But pundits spot on, Konsa & Pickford are a worry – We need to start Trafford & Stones instead.
Saka must start cuz Noni & Rashford are better as impact subs not starters.
Rice is a #5 = Bobby Moore 2.0
Anderson is a #6 = Nobby Stiles 2.0
Maxy D (Dowman) is a #8 = Bobby Moore 2.0
Jude is a #10 = Roger Hunt 2.0, (but he wud love to be Maradona or Messi 2.0, as wud your guests too)
Rio N = Martin Peters 2.0
Harry = Hurst 2.0
This world cup is about preparing for Euro 28 & WC30.
When Maxy D & Rio N enter the fray.
And Ice Cold Palmer (= George Best 2.0) &
Foden (= Greaves)
&
Quansah (=Jack Charlton 2.0)
return to the fray in good health & top form.
too much pampering
WHAT I WANT THE ENGLAND TO UNDERSTAND IS THIS, YOU CONLONISED US,THOUGHT US HOW TO PLAY FOOTBALL, BUT RIGHT NOW, IF IT WASN'T CORRUPTION ON ON GHANAIANS SIDE, AND THEY HAD ALLOWED THE WHO THE CUP FIT'S TO WORK, GHANA WOULD HAVE BEATEN SOO MANY COUNTRIES, TRUST ME
No Trent to break through the low block!!
Ghana parked the bus , just like Spain against lowly Cape Verde.
Didnโt you experts watch that game
So nasal
Football coming home? Think not ๐
Nothing went wrong. It's just that England was never that good anyway!
England one up front three shots on target v Ghana parked double decker bus sums it up E shoulda put three strikers on second half

Ghana were robbed. There is no way England will win the World Cup like this. Also, Gorgon MUST NOT start anymore games. Adam Wharton should be in the squad.
Man i knew they were about to get clowned after this result especially against this mediocre ghana team. Yeah don't give me the bullsh*t oh ghana is good nyanya nyanyani. But again it's England, i feel so bad their 'actually talented' players being surrounded by overhyped mediocre teammates.
TT was diplomatic, he said Ghana were physical, I thought dirty. Some of the tackles were โrobustโ to say the least. Their contribution to the game was boring and easily given. Unbelievably tedious to watch. But England were poor all round. Ghana came to frustrate and intimidate and they did. Useless spectacle and on balance they did not deserve a penalty given that I feel their physicality deserved a general red card.
Penalty Ghana !!!!!
England would have lost had Ghana not been robbed of the clear penalty
Poor refereeing against Ghana.
Africans teams should leave world cup once and for all and start playing their own ONLY continental tournaments. Refereeing in the world cup has been against African teams and it's time to call it enough.
