Summary
England played out a frustrating 0-0 draw against Ghana in a World Cup warm-up match, a stark contrast to their thrilling attacking display against Croatia days earlier. The Three Lions were too slow in possession, lacked urgency, and struggled to create chances against a physical, resolute Ghana side. Harry Kane missed the best opportunity late on, blazing over from close range. The performance served as a reality check for Thomas Tuchel's team ahead of the World Cup.
