In the closing minutes of the first half in Atlanta, Harry Kane got in behind the DR Congo defense with goalkeeper Lionel Mpasi beaten and the entire box in front of him. He had the simplest route available after cutting to the outside, running straight into Mpasi's arms and inviting the whistle. Instead he went down early, chasing contact that was never going to arrive. The referee waved play on. It was the correct call, and for a while it looked like the only real chance En

England had 80% possession against Ghana and scored nothing. DR Congo are going to do the same thing to them at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. The numbers from both group stages tell a more complicated story than England's six-point finish suggests.
