JS Djidjel Overview

England have received a significant fitness boost ahead of their World Cup last-32 showdown against DR Congo, with Declan Rice expected to return to the starting line-up. The Arsenal midfielder sat out the victory over Panama to manage a calf issue but is now ready to anchor the midfield again in the knockout rounds.

Harry Kane has officially become England's greatest-ever World Cup goalscorer, eclipsing a record held by Gary Lineker for 36 years. The historic moment occurred during the Three Lions' victory over Panama, prompting a hilarious and foul-mouthed exchange between Lineker and Micah Richards.

Jordan Henderson has admitted that "time flies" after the former Liverpool captain etched his name into the record books during England's World Cup victory over Panama. The veteran midfielder became the first Three Lions international in history to feature in four different World Cup tournaments.

Wayne Rooney has warned Thomas Tuchel that he must avoid repeating a critical mistake made by former manager Gareth Southgate regarding the fitness of Harry Kane. Despite the captain finding the net again in a 2-0 victory over Panama, the Three Lions' all-time leading scorer remains at the centre of a debate concerning his workload during major tournaments.
