I am talking about team England or as they’re affectionately known as, “the Three Lions”.

Since lifting the World Cup trophy in 1966, English media and fans have flirted with the idea of being world champions for a second time, however the closest they have come since then, was a fourth place finish in 1990 and 2018.

Their qualification performances and initial tournament results are often very flattering, but they seemingly stumble in the knockout phase, specifically at the quarterfinal stage, where they have been eliminated five times.
