I’d also like to point out that several DRC players should have been booked for waving imaginary yellow cards.
Yes I am annoyed.

Quite easily: because the keeper’s actions were not the cause for Kane going down, instead they touched when Kane was almost on the ground.
Some amazing defensive saves from Congo. It could be at least 3-1 England, but some incredible and lucky saves.
I completely disagree. Kane expected contact, he got it, keeper took him out.
The keeper missed the ball, the striker is not required to leap over him. Can’t believe VAR didn’t turn it over and award the penalty.
Man, I don’t know how the second half is going to be able to live up to the first.
DR Congo better hope that shot off the post doesn’t come back to haunt them.
Bellingham hugging the DRC goalie after that save is iconic.
I was watching the game at the office with my co-workers but some idiot scheduled a meeting and we had to stop ![]()
Apparently the last time we won a World Cup match from behind was the 1966 final. Oh dear…
So let’s hope for another Wembley goal… ![]()
I’m no expert but I feel like those penalties are given almost all the time.
This does have the feeling that England will break through eventually, but you never know.
Darren Cann, who was assistant referee in the 2010 World Cup final, is on BBC and he said he thought it was a penalty. But anyway, can’t keep looking back at that, need to keep pressing forward and hope the DRC keeper doesn’t keep playing a blinder. I’m not hopeful!
England were down 1-0 to Croatia at halftime in the Group L opener and came back to win 4-2
What a save on a deflected shot!
Damned, and there we almost had one, what with Congo clearing the ball millimeters before the line…
Hairy Cane needs to step up…
Eh? We were never behind at any stage
You’re right - Copilot was wrong.
Kane not really getting any service. One of his main characteristics is dropping deep, and he’s deeper than Bellingham at points, but this is on England’s midfield.
Yeah, Kane’s qualities are really wasted when you put him only in the front to wait for service. He has been all over the pitch, sometimes deep in the defense and often with wide assists for co-players at Bayern last season, and yet he got the golden boot in the Bundesliga and in Europe.
ETA: and then he scores!
