England Hold 78% Possession But Still Can't Score — Ghana Draw Raises Alarm
Times of India·Wednesday, 24 June 2026
England and Ghana played out a 0-0 draw in Boston at the FIFA World Cup 2026, with England setting a possession record of 78.8% but failing to convert any of it into goals. Ghana's disciplined defence held firm, with key clearances keeping the scoresheet blank. Both sides are now level on four points heading into their final group games.

England's inability to turn dominance into goals is a recurring problem that could cost them deep in the tournament — a cautionary tale for any team that mistakes ball-holding for attacking threat.
