WC CHALLENGE: #12/25


12/25:

This Umbro home kit was worn between March 1990 to November 1992, and featured in both the 1990 Italia World Cup Finals, and the 1992 UEFA Euro Championship, held in West Germany. The shirt is most famous for being worn in the Italia 90 semi-final against West Germany, which England lost 4-3 ... on bloody penalties. It was worn a total of 7 times during the Italia 90 finals. This is probably my 2nd favourtie England home shirt from over the years!

I’m wearing the 'FIFA WORLD CUP, ITALY 90' edition with #19 on the back, as worn by Paul Gascoigne.
He made 57 appearances for England, scoring 10 goals during his 11-year England career.

Today's schedule:
Group A: Uruguay v Russia
Group A: Saudi Arabia v Egypt
Group B: Spain v Morocco
Group B: Iran v Portugal

Firstly, can I just take a moment to mention England's 6-1 win against Panama yesterday! It wasn't a perfect performance, but it was England's biggest World Cup win ... EVER! That along with securing a spot in the knock-out stage with a game in hand is definitely something worth to celebrating!
Back to today's games, there's a lot to play for in both group A and B. Will Ronaldo manage to score more than Harry Kane's total so far (5)? ... I for one hope not.
