We are officially one month away from the start of the FIFA World Cup.
The most popular team in the world will feature in Group B and with all things considered, should probably win the group.
I am talking about the England team or as they are affectionately known as the “Three Lions”.
Since lifting the World Cup trophy in 1966, English media and fans have flirted with the idea of being world champions for a second time, however the closest they have come since then was a fourth-place finish in 1990 and 2018 .
Their performances in qualifying and initial tournament results are often very flattering, but they seem to stumble in the knockout stage, especially at the quarter-final stage, where they have been eliminated five times.
