Panama players are big and strong which is helping them here.

Pressure on Belguim to win the game with only 45 mins to go.

Great goal! When you have talented players, you can turn it on at any given moment.

Will Belguim now play with freedom or can Panama come back?

Good stuff from my team. Everybody contributed. Witsel was a rock. Lukaku and Mertens scored. Hazard and De Bruyne assisted. Cortouis was good too. Hope Kompany/Vermaelen comes in next game tho.
 
England look a little weak at the back but are going for attacking play in this game. Tunisia will be confident if they can settle in and not conceed in the first 20.
 
Looks like England fans are outnumbered by Tunisians in the stadium. The government of the UK propoganda against Russia has not helped.
 
So we're off and running, nearly a goal for England after a couple of minutes.

Is Walker drunk? Putting elbow high on a squire ball in air is fundamental error of defending!!!! After all these pressing, it's 1-1 at half hour mark and ENG forwards have drained themselves at least twice here with their high tempo start - I hope they regroup at the break to win it.

Rubbish from England, Tunisia are the better team so far!

With the humidity, I can see England falling away. Tunisia can win this if they play sesnibly.

They will once again start with a high temp in the second half and if England dont score, they could lose this as the Tunisians will be strong in the later part of the match.
 
England totally struggling to break down Tunisia

Not one great chance in last kar half hour

Well played ENG - the guy assigned to mark Kane is MoM for me. 2 goals on set piece with No. 9 completely unchallenged to score from inside small box.

Feel sorry for Tunisia but if you dont come to attack, you can always lose the game until the very end.

England should beat Panama easily and quailify for the knockouts.

Lol good one.

Hoping Gareths famous squad shocks you but can trust this defence . Walker as a CB in back 3 with Ashely Young as LB with Rose on bench and Betrand at home. Sir Hendo isn't convincing in cm.

Since you bring religion into this, have a look at the footage of the Tunisian players praying before the start of the game. Think carefully before wishing this on your Muslim brothers.

ENG might fade away in KO stages - this level of physical stress is too much for 4/5 games in 3 weeks. It's still a workman like team, playing against probably one of the least skilled and tactical teams of the WC. This morning, the game Japan played ...... I wish they could face ENG today.

Watch this game now - best African team vs a very good European side.

Just because someone is Muslim doesn't mean that they have my love by default, I have more of an attachment with England then Tunisia
 
Mashallah England made Tunisia obsolete. We battered them that game should have been 3-0 up at half time. Deserved the 3 points. Inshallah Tunisia will not qualify from this group.
