Former England striker Alan Shearer has told the BBC that England will be eliminated in the quarter-finals of the World Cup.
Gareth Southgate’s side reached the semi-finals of the 2018 World Cup in Russia and lost to Italy in the Euro 2020 final at Wembley last summer.
«I don’t see us going as far as the last two tournaments Shearer said.
«I think in terms of midfielders and forwards Southgate will be confident but defense is a concern “, he added. “ We should win Group (B, with USA, Iran and Wales) with the skills we have in our team. The further you go in the tournament the better the opponents and the better the players you face, so my concern for England would be defence. »
