All the teams that will take part in the World Cup later this year are concerned, but England’s have to focus on their inability to deal with some fairly simple balls on the pitch.
There will be times when Gareth Southgate’s team will be outplayed or the other team will open you up, but this is just a basic inability to deal with a long ball rather aimlessly down the pitch, and it’s also worth noting that Giacomo Raspadori advertises himself like 5″8, so England CBs should dominate this type of ball every time.
To be fair, it’s a great take and a wonderful ending, but this is pretty basic stuff that the defense just needs to figure out before heading to Qatar:
