Tunisia vs England Review
Harry Kane's dramatic last-minute winner ensured England's first opening win in a major tournament since 2006.
Tunisia 1-2 England
Wow. This game had it all. Tunisia vs England finished off Matchday 5, and did so in a spectacular manner. This invigorating game had a number of ups and downs, with Captain Kane producing moments of wonder that ultimately gave England the win.
England started off the game in a very slick manner, with the Three Lions failing to convert a lot of their chances which should have been. However, Harry Kane gave England what they deserved when he turned in a save by Tunisia's goalkeeper, Hassen.
As play went on, Tunisia became more calm on the ball and were able to attack Pickford's goal. Kyle Walker gave away a soft penalty, as he backed into Tunisia's Ben Youssef, who fell with his arms flailing. Many England fans had been adamant about that penalty call, but the penalty was most likely the correct call as Walker elbowed Ben Youssef. Sassi kept his composure as he fired Tunisia back into the game.
Tunisia were able to frustrate England in the second half, with the Three Lions unable to score from open play. VAR was not called upon when Harry Kane was rugby-tackled in the penalty area. England fans have resented VAR in its failure to make a correct penalty decision.
However, in the opening minutes of stoppage time, Harry Maguire was able to flick on a fantastic corner by Kieran Trippier, which ended in Kane scoring a last minute winner.
