The Athletic FC Podcast · Why were England so flat against Ghana? · 24 Jun 2026 podcast

And there seemed to be a bit of confusion at times in terms of trying to stretch Garner in multiple directions at once, which I thought they did very well against Croatia. voice-verified

And by the time they got it, voice-verified

But together, England, I think in the last 20, 30 minutes, they just ran out of time to win the game. voice-verified

Although you can say the Kane chance should go in, no matter the context. voice-verified

We'll play as much football as it takes to win this game and no more. voice-verified

Yeah. voice-verified

They were also clearly worried about Garner's threat in transition as well, which I think became a bigger factor as the game went on. voice-verified

Well, just like the fact that Antoine Semenya is on the pitch, I think is slightly worrying. voice-verified

And maybe that informed the selection of Spence in the first place because he is England's fastest defender recovery wise. voice-verified

But you still had moments in the second half like the Esri-Konsa tackle late on, which probably should have been a penalty. voice-verified

I'm sure there are a few people in Ghana making that particular argument. voice-verified

Saka feels like the biggest decision because in both games where he's come on, you've seen immediately that he's physically capable of making an impact. voice-verified

But the question is how long for? voice-verified

So it looks like they're making a real calculation with him of when to hit the accelerator with his minutes in this tournament. voice-verified

They know they probably don't really need him in the group stage to get through, but they may need him just to make sure they top the group and finish where they want to finish. voice-verified

So that's probably the single biggest decision. voice-verified

I also think this could be a game for Nico O'Reilly at left back because maybe he's voice-verified

He's less of a defensive presence than Spence, but he gives you so much more on the ball, so much more in terms of the way that he interacts with other players on the left. voice-verified

And Tuchel's built this team around those wide rotations and Kane kind of playmaking from the middle. voice-verified

So I think those are maybe the two biggest ones. voice-verified
