🧠 Tactical Battle: Clash of Offense and Defense

· England’s main attack, breaking dense defenses: Ghana is expected to set up a "park the bus" formation, testing England’s ability to break through tight defenses. Left-back Neco Williams could be key to breaking the deadlock. Set pieces are a significant advantage.
· Ghana’s counterattack, exploiting mistakes: Ghana will rely on quick counterattacks and physical confrontations. However, England’s midfield (Bellingham + Rice) combines toughness and coverage, which can counter this approach. Once Ghana pushes forward, Kane and Bellingham’s counterattacks could be deadly.
