England's progression from Group L at the FIFA World Cup could be confirmed on June 23 when the Three Lions take on Ghana in Boston.
Thomas Tuchel's team were one of the standout performers on MD1, and a second straight win will likely wrap up top spot with a game to spare.

England has traditionally been an underwhelming performer on the global stage, but something feels different this year. Thomas Tuchel's side were excellent on matchday one, scoring four times against Croatia in a dominant showing.
Harry Kane was in excellent form, scoring twice, while further efforts were netted by Jude Bellingham and Marcus Rashford in Dallas.
Despite defensive issues, the Three Lions thrived in the final third of the field, and that attacking quality could be crucial once again against Ghana on MD2 in Boston.

Ghana could also secure their progression from Group L on Tuesday with a victory. The Black Stars were excellent on MD1, but they had to work hard to record a 1-0 win over Panama.
Their winning goal was scored in the fifth minute of second half injury time by Caleb Yirenkyi. Ghana defended excellently throughout the clash, and they utilized their pace on the counterattack to make the difference.
A similar tactic will be likely once again against England in Boston.
England were professional on matchday one, and another strong attacking performance should be expected in Boston. Therefore, we fully expect the Three Lions to record a second straight victory.
