England might have reasons to be concerned after their qualification for the Brazilian World Cup, as their recent performance has raised eyebrows. This concern was further fueled by their friendly match against Chile on Friday evening, where Roy Hodgson’s team suffered a 0-2 defeat at Wembley, with two goals from Barcelona’s Alexis Sanchez.
The loss against Chile provided Hodgson with an opportunity to assess the state of his squad and evaluate the freshness of certain players. Additionally, it exposed the English team to an opponent from the South American zone, a challenge they are not accustomed to facing.
On the other hand, Chile extended their impressive streak with this victory, marking their 10th consecutive match without defeat. As they gear up to face Brazil on Tuesday, their strong form is evident. Meanwhile, England will face Germany in their next match, and the outcome will be closely watched as they seek to address concerns and improve their performance heading into the World Cup.
