Insane start for DR Congo, don’t think Spence was to blame as he had to cover the central area too. Also a shot PIckford NEEDS to save. Awful goalkeeping. Big chance later in the game too for Wissa but against the post. Referee is shambolic, two moments where England shouldve had a penalty, one moment for sure. Very very weird its not given or even reviewed properly. Low block was quite something from DR Congo, worked well against this England side. So many saves from Mpazi though, England had 1.31 xG in the first half and some insane saves stopped England from scoring. Second half was practically the same untul hydration break, GOD BLESS HYDRATION BREAKS, it actually made the game more fun!! Again! This is exactly why i like them because it completely changed the game and England became a new team. Gordon was a huge difference, while Rice at right back is honestly a great option. Two assists for Gordon, two goals for Kane. More goals than Pele now for good old Harry, what a striker, what a player, best in the world right now. Mexico - England at Azteca will be a sight to behold, so excited. Man of the match for me is between Rice and Kane, after thinking about it i think im still giving it to Rice because of his consistent quality throughout the game. Whereas Kane was struggling most of the game, two goals that are incredibly important but overall Rice was better this game.

I am under the impression that the more English of a day I have on an England matchday, the higher England's chances. I went to a seaside arcade, played the 2p machines, and had fish and chips for lunch. For the first hour and a half of this game, my superstitions seemed futile. England seem to take dangerously long to get going. It was a difficult watch. I was watching the game begging for a creative attacking midfielder to come on. Eberechi Eze performed silent miracles after his substitution, Saka and Gordon should undoubtedly start against Mexico alongside O'Reilly and Spence. Elliot Anderson played excellently. He was by far our best player, particularly for the first sixty minutes. I am terrified for the Mexico game, but I believe we can do this. Come on England. @alf I am very glad that the "Hello Freddie" GIF has arrived!! Thank you for creating it, I smile whenever i see it.
