Everton goalkeeper Jordan Pickford has proclaimed he’s ready to take a penalty as well as facing them from opponents if England go into a shoot-out at the World Cup.
The Three Lions face African champions Senegal in the second round in Qatar on Sunday (7pm kick-off) and after being their shoot-out hero at the same stage of the competition in Russia in 2018 when he saved from Colombia’s Carlos Bacca, Pickford is prepared for the potential of spot-kicks again.
Recalling that game at the Spartak Stadium in Moscow, he told ITV Sport : “It was a great night, for us as England and for us as a team. Not many of us had many caps at that stage, we were relatively new and it was a first major tournament for a lot of us.
