Engeland wist zich op het nippertje te verzekeren van winst tegen een stug Tunesië. De Adelaars van Carthago boden heel wat tegenstand en het duurde tot de 91ste minuut vooraleer Harry Kane het Engelse volk in extase bracht. Ondanks de drie punten van de Engelsen, lieten de tegenvallende prestaties van enkele Engelse spelers een heel slechte indruk bij de fans na.
In Engeland werd de prestatie van Raheem Sterling totaal niet gesmaakt door het Engelse volk. De aanvaller van Manchester City was al omstreden door zijn opvallende tattoeage, en maakte zijn reputatie vandaag allerminst goed.

Sterling was f*cking horrendous... #TUNENG

#BBC World Cup coverage: pundits telling us to watch for #Sterling in the #TUNENG game; what did he do and what difference did he make? Nothing and Not a Thing.

Start #Rashford, he's better.
Sterling and Lingard must be dropped next game. Both were hopeless. Rashford and loftus cheek made a massive difference. Southgate needs to show he has balls and drop the favourites. #ENGTUN #Eng #TUNENG

#TUNENG Kane the player to look out for this world cup, Sterling is a complete waste

Lingard and Sterling couldn’t hit a barn door with a banjo. Trippier looking good. Tunisia limited and VAR seemed to be broken. King Kane! #TUNENG @BBCSport

So many positives to take from this game including how better we played without Sterling #TUNENG

Sterling not good enough,Cheek needs to start, Rashford needs to start, Trippier played well. Walker is a liability.Kane is a pure gold! Spur lad #TUNENG

What we learned from that game, Maguire is shit, Rashford in for Sterling, Henderson should be captain AND TRIPPIER SHOULDN’T TAKE FREEKICKS. Good win. #WorldCupRussia2018 #TUNENG 🏴🏴🏴🏴

#TUNENG #WorldCup Sterling is such a crap player, don't know why he started over Rashford.. and England need to play one more midfield player otherwise would be given a stick from big teams.. Walker either should play RB or should not play at all..
