Rooney scored first World Cup goal |
In another display of defensive naivety, England were beaten 2-1 by Uruguay courtesy of two Luis Suarez goals in a match played at the Arena Corinthians in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
Yet again, England lacked the requisite cutting edge in the final third and despite their obvious superior talent (as was also the case in their 2-1 loss to Italy), were made to pay by another experienced side at the World Cup.
England are now bottom of their group with zero points from two matches and will need a miracle to advance to the next round.
Italy and Uruguay will play tomorrow for a chance to take an unassailable lead of the group.
