England World Cup Run - Group Stage Done 😂

So today was my second group game and it was Ghana. I already knew if I win this one I’m straight to knockout, no stress. Same plan as vs Croatia - Palmer upfront instead of Kane. I didn’t even bother with Kane this tournament. Palmer at the front just feels more free, more dribbles, more shots from anywhere. First 2 minutes I got a nice goal, some small pass then Palmer curled it in. After that I just relaxed.

I won’t lie, I played that game like training. Beginner level so I was just taking it for granted. Slight passes here and there, playing keep-ball, not even trying hard. In my head I was like “there’s no way Ghana can beat me on this level”. And I was right 😂 Ended it 9-0. Palmer scored again, Foden and Saka joined the party. Their defense was just watching. Felt like I was bullying them but what can I do, beginner mode is like that.

So with that 9-0 I cleared my group stage already. No need to play the last match again, I just skipped it. Group L is done. But knockout phase is where the real thing starts. I’m done with this beginner vibes. Next round I’m switching to a tougher level because I want actual competition. If Croatia and Ghana couldn’t test me, let’s see if France or Brazil will.

Who you think will give me problems in knockouts?
