A worry for England must be how Congo walk up the field and arrive at the England penalty area in numbers.
Even if England score Congo will probably have chances for a second goal.

I think England had me to thank. I refused to back them even at 4 here at 1-0 down in the mid 2nd half. I'd have put the mockers on England for sure.

Kane to the rescue again. He scored two brilliant goals to take England to the last 16.

Mr Tuchel, please do NOT start Rashford again. He may come on as a sub, but never to start.

not as physical, but altitude takes care of that for them.
