England started the World Cup in Qatar in the best way. This Monday, the selection thrashed Iran by 6 to 2 and, for now, leads Group B of the Group Stage. United States and Wales, who complete the group, face each other at 16:00 (Brasília time).
Harry Maguire did not score a single goal, but he did have the waiter’s job and put danger on target once before being substituted in pain.
In the 31st minute of the first half, Trippier took a corner kick and the defender rose higher than everyone else, heading the crossbar. Eleven minutes later, in a new corner, Maguire straightened for Saka, who unleashed a first-rate shot into the corner.
Despite the good performance, the player had to leave the field in the second half. When the scoreboard noted 20 minutes, the game was stopped for Maguire to receive medical attention and, after four minutes, he was replaced by Dier. The England team has not yet disclosed whether there are complications with the athlete.
