June 24 (THEWILL) — England missed the chance to secure qualification from Group L after being held to a 0-0 draw by a disciplined Ghana side at Boston Stadium in Foxborough.
Fresh from their entertaining 4-2 victory over Croatia, Thomas Tuchel’s men struggled to break down a compact Ghanaian defence that sat deep and limited clear-cut opportunities.
Declan Rice fired over from a free-kick early on, while Jude Bellingham and Harry Kane were both denied before halftime.
Despite dominating possession and registering 19 attempts, England managed just three shots on target.
Their best opportunities arrived late in the match, with substitute Nico O’Reilly striking the crossbar before Marc Guehi saw a stoppage-time header cleared off the line.
The result leaves England and Ghana level at the top of Group L heading into the final round of group matches. England will face Panama, while Ghana take on Croatia in a decisive clash for qualification.
