World Cup

GARETH SOUTHGATE faces a huge selection headache when England face Senegal due to the Three Lions squad being so strong. That is the opinion of former England captain John Terry, who thinks the strong display from squad players against Wales has given Southgate a selection “problem”.

Marcus Rashford and Phil Foden came into the fray against Wales after Southgate dropped Bukayo Saka and Raheem Sterling to the bench.
And due to both getting on the scoresheet Southgate will need to think carefully about his team to start the last 16.
Speaking to beIN Sports, Terry said: “We have so much quality like I said before the game and at half-time.
“It was important that we got fresh players on the pitch, I thought it was better that we made three substitutions at once.

“(Kyle) Walker, who needed the minutes to play. (Harry) Kane comes off and other players go on and Rashford scores two goals.
“Foden starts the game tonight which was a real positive. I said before the tournament that Phil could be a big big player for us in this World Cup and it now causes the manager problems.
“It will be interesting to see his next team when we play against Senegal because the players have given the manager a problem.”

Southgate has dipped into the pool of players he has at his disposal throughout the group stage.

While he retained the same starting XI for the games against Iran and the USA he did bring on six different players from the bench across both.
And by giving Walker and Kalvin Phillips good runouts it further boosts the options he has going into the knockout games.
Terry added: “When you’ve got such a good group of players it’s important to know that Harry Kane if you’re not playing well there’s other players that can come in – Rashford could replace you.
“If Phil Foden you’re not playing well you will be replaced. If Mason Mount doesn’t play well you will be replaced.
“When you have that competitiveness within your group it’s great as well as the players feel part of it.” More

After the match the squad were once again given time to mingle with their family, friends and partners.
Some were very affectionate with their significant others and shared kisses and hugs to celebrate their success.
Here is what body language expert Judi James thinks each Wag’s body language says about their relationship.
Jack Grealish & Sasha Atwood
Sasha is making it very clear who her hero is here, both to Jack and to the rest of the world, with this unmasked display of excitement and adulation as she hooks round his shoulder and arm and arches her back to press her upper torso into his body.

Her cat-got-the-cream smile shows ‘he’s all mine’ and her mouth moves close to his ear to allow her to whisper a few smitten-looking words of praise for his victory on the pitch.
Grealish actually shows his thoughtful and gentlemanly side here.
The way he hugs side-on could hint at a lack of commitment but the way his right arm is hooked around Sasha is a gesture of strong connection and his body separation trait is probably him trying to keep his muddy and possibly sweaty bod away from hers.
These two showed a mirrored personality trait too: both seem to be always laughing and grinning, showing an openly confident enjoyment of life in general as well as a love of all things football.

Bukayo Saka & Tolami Benson
The very elegant Tolami looks too cool for school and it appears from this mirrored ‘moment’ of very controlled-looking congratulations and ‘affection’ as though Saka matches her poker face when he gets off the pitch.
They look like they’re working a look of A-list celebrity here, honing in for their greeting with selfie-perfect closed lips and unsmiling expressions.
The way they look at each other’s mouths rather than eyes hints at a possible touch of shyness from Saka though. No laughing or excited-looking greeting here then, but maybe it’s her calm approach that is keeping him centered out there on the pitch.

Aaron Ramsdale & Georgia Irwin
This looks like a romantic kiss after a long separation rather than a brief spell apart and the romance looks even more important than the 3-0 win for this pair, suggesting they’re in the early stages of love.
They look lost to the world, with Georgia looking especially like a girl with a crush, clutching and leaning with her back arched for an eyes-closed kiss.
They look a bit like slightly awkward teenagers here but full marks for effort and ‘ah’ factor.

Harry Kane & Katie Goodland
Slumped back his seat and settling down for what looks like a good old natter with wife Katie, Kane looks like a man who has just come back for a cuppa after mowing the back lawn rather than having just qualified for the next round of the World Cup.
Little fazes Kane out on the pitch and it looks as though the same is true for him and Kate off the pitch as she looks equally calm here.
When they do kiss they just turn their heads inward rather than their torsos but the signals of strong affection are there in the eye contact that produces a reaction of facial expression softening and warm smiles.

Luke Shaw & Anoushka Santos
Shaw looks happily isolated with Anouska here, with his arm thrown casually around her shoulders as though they’re sitting watching a movie in the local cinema.
Her body language signals suggest she’s besotted though, as she presses her body under his (probably match-sweaty) armpit and nuzzles his face with her own.
Her symmetric smile and the way her eyes are closed in reflective delight suggest strong affection.
When they kissed he leant in for a bestowed kiss as she placed both hands around his face and kept her eyes open in a gesture of proud ownership.

Phil Foden & Rebecca Cooke
We can’t see Foden’s reaction here but Rebecca looks very much like a practical girl who knows her own mind as she greets the winger with a smile of pride.
She keeps her glasses on rather than flinging them off for a passionate snog and her splayed-fingered hands that she places on his shoulders and the way her eyes pick out the camera suggests she’s the more confident one in the relationship.

TWO England fans at the World Cup have revealed how the son of a Qatari Sheikh asked them if he wanted to see his lion before driving them back to his palace in a Lamborghini.Alex and his father Tommy Sullivan were in a supermarket close to their accommodation looking for food and beer when they bumped into the multi-millionaire Sheikh who invited them for a tour of his mansion.

The pair appeared on ITV’s This Morning where they recounted their incredible World Cup adventure to Holly and Phil.
Alex said that after the two men, who he named as two of the Qatari Sheikh’s sons Nawaf and Abdul-Aziz, admired their tops with the England Three Lions’ crest, they invited them to get in their car and see his private zoo, where he had his own lion.
They zoomed through the streets of Doha in his Lamborghini, listening to the 1980 early hip-hop classic “Rapper’s Delight” by The Sugarhill Gang.
At the enormous palace, he said the Sheikh made them coffee and they played FIFA and pool while chatting with the mega-rich heir.

And they have since had the chance to meet up with the pair again when they went out to eat.
Their unbelievable story first went viral after they spoke to talkSPORT in one of the fan zones in Qatar.
But after some cast doubt over their claims, Alex shared remarkable videos from their night out as proof of their exploits.
In the videos originally posted on Alex’s Snapchat, he can be seen playing with a lion cub while his father and a friend chat to the Sheikh and his entourage.

On Wednesday morning, they revealed exactly how the night unfolded.

Both were wearing similar tops with the England badge alongside that of their beloved Everton that they were wearing on the night they met the Sheikh.
Tommy told Holly and Phil: “He said, ‘I love your top, three lions. I have a lion.'”
Alex went on: “We got in his car, you would have loved it, Holly, he put ‘Rapper’s Delight’ on. We were dancing all night to the palace.”
He admitted they were “apprehensive at first” about getting in a stranger’s car, but were “on such a buzz” after their first day in Qatar that they squashed their fears.

They then arrived at the enormous complex, which Alex said was the size of Manchester City’s Etihad Stadium, plus its car park.
Inside were football pitches, paddle courts, and multiple properties, one of which was the Sheikh’s “man cave”.
Alex said: “He took us round to what looked like a man cave sort of thing. That’s when they made us coffees, we played FIFA, we played pool, we just had great conversations.
“They became our friends.”
He acknowledged they had received some backlash after Alex was filmed playing with a captive lion cub at the Sheikh’s private zoo.
“We had a little bit of backlash from people who don’t approve, I thought that as well, but you see the size of this zoo, there are workers looking after them, they get fed every day, the lions are getting whisked round in Lamborghinis,” he said.
“All I’m doing is I’m just reporting what I’m seeing.”
He said that the videos were only meant to be seen by his close friends and that he had a panic once they went viral and the identities of their two Qatari pals were released.
But he said they had since met up with the pair, and they were perfectly happy with the footage being shared around the world.
“We went back to the restaurant, we had something to eat with them, and that’s when they said ‘It’s absolutely fine, you’ve done a great job showing our hospitality,'” he said.
And he also claimed they had been blown away by how they had been received by all of the Qataris they had met.

“It’s been absolutely fantastic, every prejudice has been destroyed, no matter who you speak to, whether it’s the highest-ranking family or the workers who are so lovely as well,” he said.
“Everyone’s so hospitable and so friendly and kind, we’re really enjoying our time here and we’ve got another few weeks here.”
