England (1-0-0) vs. Ghana (1-0-0) — Group L Match Preview
England meet Ghana with both nations carrying 1-0-0 records into the second round of Group L at Boston Stadium in Foxborough, MA. England arrive as 1966 champions still chasing a first major trophy since, making an eighth consecutive World Cup appearance under Thomas Tuchel, while Ghana reach a fifth tournament and a second straight after topping their CAF group, guided by Carlos Queiroz at a record fifth straight World Cup as a coach.
The English attack runs through Harry Kane, the captain and all-time top scorer who put up 36 goals in the Bundesliga this season for Bayern Munich, with Jude Bellingham adding 6 goals and 4 assists in LALIGA for Real Madrid as the engine of the midfield.
On the other side, Ghana lean on Antoine Semenyo, who recorded 17 goals and 4 assists in the Premier League this season, and captain Jordan Ayew, who set up 7 goals in qualifying to drag his side to the top of the group. Ghana reached the quarterfinals in 2010, Africa’s joint-best finish, and have already shown they can punish opponents who underestimate them. The sides have met only once, a 1-1 friendly back in 2011, leaving little familiarity between them on the big stage. With three points already banked by each team, a win here would put real distance between the victor and the rest of Group L.

Players to Watch: England vs. Ghana
England
Harry Kane — ST. The captain and England’s all-time top scorer arrives in Boston off a remarkable 36-goal Bundesliga campaign for Bayern Munich, where he also chipped in 5 assists. His 119 shots across 25 starts point to a forward who hunts chances relentlessly and rarely needs a second invitation in front of goal.
Jude Bellingham — MF. Real Madrid’s midfield star brings 6 goals and 4 assists from his LALIGA season, the kind of box-to-box output that lets England attack in waves. With 51 shots across 22 starts, he is as much a goal threat from deep as he is a creator for Kane ahead of him.
Bukayo Saka — W. Arsenal’s primary wide threat logged 7 goals and 5 assists in the Premier League this season, stretching defenses down the right before cutting inside. Across 26 starts and 71 shots, Saka gives Tuchel a one-on-one specialist who can break a stubborn Ghana block.
Ghana
Antoine Semenyo — W. Ghana’s standout wide man delivered superb Premier League form this season with 17 goals and 4 assists, numbers that would headline most attacks at this tournament. His 83 shots across 37 starts make him the most direct goal threat Ghana can put on the field against England.
Jordan Ayew — FW. The captain set up 7 goals in qualifying and adds 6 goals and 3 assists from his club season, leadership and end product wrapped into one. Across 24 starts he has been the connective thread for Ghana, dropping in to link play before arriving in the box himself.
Inaki Williams — FW. The Athletic Club forward brings pace and power to the Ghana front line, contributing 3 goals and a team-leading 6 assists in LALIGA this season. With 57 shots across 25 starts, Williams stretches back lines in behind and gives Ghana an outlet to run at England’s defenders directly.
