The comparsion is a team getting exactly what's needed from a group game and going on to do well in the tournament.
What was important last night was stopping USA getting 3 points, keeping a clean sheet and now they're in the best position of all the teams in the group. The goal wasn't to entertain a bunch of whining smooth brain fans.

So expecting a little more is smooth brain..ok. The game was terrible. I can def see that a point puts England in a great position but any who watched that last night and thought it was a pragmatic performance was watching a different game. The USA out played, out hustled and out worked England for 70/80 mins. It was a poor game but the positive to come out of it is a point and a clean sheet.

That’s hardly a comparison. Uruguay won the World Cup twice before England had a sniff at it.
