World Cup KO: En-ger-land, En-ger-land, En-ger-land (was 'Group G')

Bazshuayi

That Kane goal was a little easier to see than the Eriksen one in the EPL ;whistle

ClaretandBlueforLife

Harry scores a hat trick....

MunichHammer

Kane claims another one ;barrera

MrsGrey

Kane claims it.

ClaretandBlueforLife

I was just thinking this is getting boring we haven’t scored for over 15 minutes ;lol

Bazshuayi

Haha I got in there first ;wahoo

SuzanneClaret

Take a bow Harry Kane ;bowdown ;clap

Cool, calm and clinical under pressure.

MunichHammer

Is this the first World Cup hattrick by an English player since Hurst?

Think so Munich ;ok

MunichHammer

The highest world cup win I can rember is 8-0 GERKSA in 2006 - I think. Or maybe 2002.

Bazshuayi

The boy line acre vs Poland (after a quick google)

jay_in_cpt

Think my commentator said Gary Lineker scored a hatrick in a WC game.
Otherwise what a scoreline....
Would have like to see Rashford on but can't complain.....
Just keep the 6 goal difference and we top group going into Belgium match.
Oops, now need that 7th goal

MunichHammer

;doh

baracks_a_hammer

England’s defence has been pretty ;hmm in both games but perhaps that’s the price to play to see great attacking play at the other end

Adam

I can see Belgium taking our defence apart, but supposedly Hazard/Lukaku aren’t playing in the final group game. And who knows what our team will be.

Giant_Hammer

I've been thinking it's great to score loads of goals but I really think this defence is going to get found out soon especially down the left. Also feel that Sterling doesn't seem good enough. ;hmm

steve

So if by some remote chance England win the world cup ,you lot do know that spurs will claim they won it .not sure I could take that for the next 50 odd years ;doh that would make me 110 so I will say for the next 40 years ;whistle

chicagohammer

Great result and hopefully the confidence it gives will propel them in the last 16 and beyond.

Despite everything, I have to wonder just how Sterling gets the nod ahead of Rashford.

jay_in_cpt

I'm just enjoying the moment ;wahoo

Great win for England although punditry from Shearer always spoils it for me, I would rather watch paint dry than listen to him. I suppose I could always turn the volume down.

jay_in_cpt

Great interview now with John Stones ,comes across as a nice honest guy ;ok ;scarveng

IronHerb

So who has a solid defence?

baracks_a_hammer

Burnley

MrsGrey

;hmm
They were 7th in the Clean Sheet table.

And 6th in the Goals conceded table.

Man Utd, Man City, Spurs, Chelsea and, surprisingly, Liverpool all have Burnley beat.

Slaven_Cups_His_Beard

Very good win, not often we put a game to bed so early, Sterling still did his bit with 2 assists......

Obviously we took our foot off second half, nothing wrong with that

steve

same record as Belgium ,what happens if we draw with them who wins the group ;hmm

Yes but burnley’s defence had to face each of Man Utd, Man City, Spurs, Chelsea and Liverpool twice

IronHerb

But Burnley aren't at the World Cup! ;puzzled

Apparently Steve, it goes down to who has the best disciplinary record. At the moment it's England.
