Not great. But Ghana didn’t exactly come to win. 11 men behind the ball for most of the game.
Pickford is a liability.

Perennial underachievers England strike (or don't) again...
For all they were good against Croatia, that was poor this evening.
How Pickford escaped at least a booking is beyond me.

So who would you choose over Pickford?🤔 Serious and inquisitive question as I only know of Pickford as a current England goalkeeper.

Pickford didn't get booked because he didn't commit an offense. On the other hand, had the attacker had the presence of mind to play the ball instead of completely ignore it and go feet first on the goalie, there is no doubt Pickford would have walked.

Ghana should have had a penalty imo.
My thought as well....who have we got that is better?

Let's relax and think of the positives from the 0 - 0 draw. England now have to play much better on Saturday against Panama. They probably thought they'd win tonight and play the lesser squad members against Panama, but now they know they can't feck about!

Any reason for that silly and completely false statement?
Simple. I have watched quite a few WC matches and yet to see VAR interject once. I haven’t watched all the matches though.
Watch any EPL match and you can pretty much guarantee that VAR will interject at least once.

VAR disallowed Iran's goal for offside.
Totally agree with you though that VAR has almost become an excuse for officials. I don't mind the technology, but when it's being used to calculate someone's elbow being offside it's a joke - that's not a clear and obvious on field error.

I have only watched highlights, but have seen a few VAR interventions. So it is most definitely present, even if maybe lower key than we usually see in the Premier League.
