The Three Lions without bite.
Surprised as early as the 7th minute by DR Congo in the World Cup round of 32 (0-1), England are already under pressure and facing the threat of a stunning elimination.
The statistics offer little encouragement. England have not won a World Cup match after falling behind since… the 1966 final against Germany, which ended with the Three Lions’ historic triumph.
Even more worrying, Thomas Tuchel’s men did not attempt a single shot during the first 30 minutes of play. A first for England at the World Cup since… that famous 1966 final!Â
A bad omen for the rest of the match.
