Sterling off, Rashford on. Well in Gate.

Good luck Rashers

It seems like England has controlled the ball for most of the second half so far.

I wouldn't have left it this long to get Vardy on. Bit worried now. Step it up lads we do need to win.

2-1.

Sir Harry Edward Kane, of England, again.

Proud of our team, they didn't panic, they got the goal.

Well done to our players

Serves me right for slagging off Karen; now she feels sick and we're waiting for the traditional visit from the doctor. Again.

Well done England. Didn't play as well as they should have done, bit lucky if truth be told, but a great result for them. Kind of gutted for the Tunisians: they must have thought, with that penalty, they had a real chance. On yaz go lads.

I don't think England were lucky at all to be honest. Total domination from start to finish.

If I thought the team had let themselves down, I would say. Most possession, most shots on target, created loads. Only criticism is not being ruthless enough and the silly error for the penalty.

For the next game, I guess Sterling will get in as it's Panama, but I'd like to see Rashford start now and Vardy get 45 mins depending on how it is at half time.

Tomorrow's games:

Colombia vs Japan
Poland vs Senegal
Russia vs Egypt

Picks in bold.

You won’t be able to get away that ratio of blown chances to goals against any of the big hitters.

I agree but I'm not worried. I would be if they weren't creating chances to miss from.

Sterling really needs to improve his finishing though it's embarrassing how bad he is.
