A team is not much better, they just can't score from open play. When England play against a stronger opposition who can deal with set pieces, they usually struggle.
Day 15: Japan vs Poland, Senegal vs Colombia, England vs Belgium, Panama vs Tunisia

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
Colombia has a good team, better if James is fit.
Wow how did you mess that up?
Croatia have been the best team in the tournament so far. Croatia, Spain, Colombia is pretty much just as strong as the other side. Argentina and Portugal are both mediocre.
Colombia are currently looking very very poor. You'd score a couple against them and I don't think you've ever lost to them.
Agreed. But Brazil are the issue. Hopefully Mexico take them out.
Do you know how stupidly arrogant that sounds? England haven't won a knockout game since 2006
This could have easily turned into the UFC.
Sunday
Seriously, are Colombia that fecking good that it warrants these two teams shitting themselves trying to avoid them?
Which in my opinion is nonsense. England wouldn't even be favourites against Colombia. They should be focusing on the next round instead of a hypothetical QF match with Brazil.
If they beat Colombia, they will play versus the winner of Sweden - Switzerland.
On the other hand, the 1st team of the group would have to play Brazil-Mexico after Japan. Then one of France, Portugal, Argentina, Uruguay.
James is injured for Colombia so he could be out of the World cup.
LOL awful effort from Rashford.
Also about the extra days rest and the venues as well as QF oppos
They are trying to get them , not avoid them.
Must have been pissed when I agreed to it
The knockout stages don't have nothing to do with the group stages.
Nice dribble by Rashford, same he lost it.
