Well that was a tough watch!  Ben, Tom and Watto are back to discuss a very frustrating afternoon for England as they were held to a 0-0 draw with Ghana. Why was it so flat? The lads look at the team line-up, did Thomas Tuchel get it wrong?  It's Panama up next for England on Saturday in their Final Group game. 

Cristiano Ronaldo meldet sich eindrucksvoll zurück: Nach einem eher unauffälligen Auftakt führt der Superstar Portugal mit zwei Treffern zu einem souveränen 5:0-Sieg gegen Usbekistan. Der 41-Jährige schreibt dabei Geschichte und ist nun der erste Spieler, der bei sechs Weltmeisterschaften getroffen hat. Tabellenführer in Gruppe K bleibt nach dem Sieg gegen die Demokratische Republik Kongo allerdings Kolumbien. Weniger erfolgreich verlief der Tag für England. Nach dem starken Turnierstart kommt die Mannschaft von Thomas Tuchel gegen Ghana nicht über ein 0:0 hinaus. Kane, Bellingham und Co. finden kein Rezept gegen die kompakte Defensive der „Black Stars“ und verpassen den vorzeitigen Gruppensieg. In Gruppe L hat Kroatien nach einem knappen 1:0 gegen Panama das Weiterkommen nun selbst in der Hand, während Panama bereits ausgeschieden ist.Auch heute blicken Anne und Jens nach Winston-Salem zum DFB-Team: Mit Sportschau-Reporterin Carina Dilg sprechen sie über die Vorbereitung auf das entscheidende Gruppenspiel gegen Ecuador, mögliche Änderungen in der Startelf und die Stimmung im DFB-Quartier vor dem richtungsweisenden Duell.Der Blick auf den WM-Tag verspricht erneut Hochspannung: In Gruppe B ist zwischen der Schweiz, Kanada, Katar und Bosnien-Herzegowina noch alles offen. In Gruppe C kämpfen Brasilien und Marokko um den Gruppensieg, während Schottland auf einen Platz unter den besten Gruppendritten hofft. Co-Gastgeber Mexiko hat das Sechzentelfinale bereits erreicht, Südkorea, Tschechien und Südafrika kämpfen in Gruppe A um die verbleibenden Tickets.Wie immer begleiten wir euch mit den wichtigsten Ergebnissen, spannenden Geschichten und den größten Themen rund um das Turnier.

Pete Graves is here with your latest 'Cheat Sheet at the World Cup' on the day when England could qualify for the knockout stages with a game to spare, if they beat Ghana in Boston.

A chaotic 4-2 comeback from Thomas Tuchel's England, Roberto Martinez frustrating Portugal against DR Congo, and a dramatic 95th-minute winner in Toronto. Day 7 was pure madness!Welcome back to FUT IN REVIEW | World Cup Daily #17.

Instead, Portugal looked stagnant in a frustrating 1-1 draw against DR Congo. We slam Roberto Martinez's rigid tactics and discuss whether Ronaldo is clogging up the pitch or if his manager lacks the cajones to bench him.Tuchel's Half-Time Rescue: England looked like "same old England" after going 2-1 down to Croatia at halftime. But Thomas Tuchel's speech completely broke the shackles. We praise Jude Bellingham for taking the game by the scruff of the neck, debate if John Stones should be dropped for Mark Guéhi, and look at Marcus Rashford's explosive performance off the bench.The Heartbreak of Toronto: Panama completely dominated Ghana for 90 minutes, only to concede a brutal 95th-minute winner to Yerenky after pushing their keeper into attack.

Following England's opening victory over Croatia, Rio is full of praise for the way Thomas Tuchel set up and managed the team after they scored 4 goals and created many more opportunities. After watching the match in his Airbnb with Joel Beya and Ste Howson - Rio praises the performances of Jude Bellingham, Marcus Rashford and Elliot Anderson. There were some concerns about the defence who were put under pressure numerous times but Rio explains why John Stones challenge of switching sides as a centre-back is such a difficult one to overcome. Harry Kane joins the likes of Kylian Mbappe, Erling Haaland and Lionel Messi who all scored at least two goals in their opening fixture which prompts a debate around the effectiveness of Cristiano Ronaldo after he drew a blank for Portugal against DR Congo. According to Rio - England's squad depth could be a hugely decisive factor in their journey through the tournament and suggests only France can compete with the attacking prowess on the bench that Tuchel has at his disposal Hosted on Acast.

Christian Polanco and Alexis Guerreros react to one of the biggest shocks of the World Cup so far as Cape Verde earn a stunning draw against Spain. Are Spain already in trouble, or is this just an early bump in the road? The guys also discuss whether Cape Verde can ride the momentum all the way to the knockout rounds before turning their attention to Lionel Messi. With what is likely his final World Cup underway, can Messi put the GOAT debate to rest forever by winning a second World Cup, or do Pelé and Maradona still have a claim to soccer immortality? Next, The Cooligans break down Tunisia's decision to appoint World Cup specialist Hervé Renard as head coach for the remainder of the tournament. Can Renard work his magic once again and guide Tunisia to an unlikely place in the knockout stages? Christian and Alexis also debate Cristiano Ronaldo's role with Portugal and ask whether the legendary forward is still one of the team's biggest weapons—or whether his presence has become more of a problem than a solution. To wrap up the show, the guys are joined by England presenter Michael Timbs to preview the Three Lions' World Cup campaign. Which players will be key to England's success? Can this generation finally deliver on decades of expectation? And after all these years, is football finally coming home?
