England given reality check by stubborn Ghana to leave group in the balance

England failed to build on their opening 4-2 win over Croatia in Group L, struggling to break down a disciplined, ultra-defensive Ghana side. Captain Harry Kane had previously warned the squad about their poor record in second group games, referencing draws against Scotland, Denmark, and the United States at recent tournaments. The result leaves England's group standing uncertain, with their best chances coming only late in the match.
