The Guardian FootballLionel Messi steps off bench and makes a little more history in Argentina’s World Cup win over Jordan
Give Lionel Messi half an hour and he will sprinkle some magic to remember. Most of the crowd under this vast roof had been afflicted with their own strain of Messidependencia for two‑thirds of this game, of which the low stakes had been reflected in both tempo and ambience. Everything before their idol’s arrival felt almost self-consciously like a prelude, played out in the certainty that a crescendo would follow. There was no need to worry about anything else here: why not get ready to bask in seeing a little more history being made? You can set your watch by Messi, even if that does not usually mean winding it to the 60th minute. He had agreed with Lionel Scaloni that, with Argentina already guaranteed the spoils in Group J, that he would not be unleashed until then. After all, no chances should be taken for the deadest of rubbers. Continue reading...

The Guardian FootballEngland’s creaky defence is a World Cup worry and they need Rice back firing | Jacob Steinberg
Win over Panama failed to disguise deficiencies at the back and Tuchel’s men will not survive against a top side by going gung-ho Does anyone know what happened to the low block? After all the talk about the challenges of breaking down a grim back seven, the bigger worry for Thomas Tuchel in New Jersey was Panama’s lack of fear. There was no sign of the underdogs borrowing from the Carlos Queiroz playbook against an anxious England, who are starting to give off the distinct whiff of a team whose World Cup is destined to end in a calamity of some sort in the knockouts. Make no mistake: England will be going home if they continue to defend like this against anyone with a functioning attack. Tuchel will not be fooled. Although his team secured top spot in Group L by wearing down Panama in the end , an achievement mainly down to Jude Bellingham again stepping up with two moments of class after a skittish first half, England were far from convincing and spent long spells demonstrating that anyone who thought an unusually gung-ho lineup would provide a vision of a post-Declan Rice world was sorely mistaken.

The Guardian FootballBellingham and Kane strike as England seal top spot with World Cup win over Panama
England are not going to win the World Cup playing like this. They will not get very far in the knockout rounds unless they can sharpen up. But at least they have made it into them, the dream still alive, after they secured top spot in Group L on a slow-burn occasion when the result meant everything. Thomas Tuchel needed to restore momentum after the bore draw against Ghana in game two, to rekindle the excitement from the opening game against Croatia, which England won 4-2 . The manager wanted to prove a point. It did not really happen and for the opening 45 minutes it was even possible to fear the worst. Were England going to fail to prise apart another obdurate opponent? Continue reading...
