'Lucky to draw' - England supporters react to Three Lions' shocking World Cup performance vs USA

England struggled in their second World Cup Group B fixture against the USA with a number of players failing to impress for Gareth Southgate's side.

The Three Lions were second-best in every department against the U.S. Men's National Team but remain top of Group B with four points. England can secure qualification for the round of 16 stage with a win against Wales in their final group stage fixture next week.

Southgate stuck with an unchanged side from the game which saw the Three Lions put six past Iran, but the attack struggled to replicate their form in front of goal. Fans were not happy with England's performance, with many suggesting they were lucky to take a point from the match.

England now need to win against Wales on Tuesday to ensure they qualify for the round of 16 stage as Group B winners, with the USA taking on Iran on the same day, at the same time (7pm UK time).
