In this episode of World Cup Uncensored, Piers Morgan and Simon Jordan are joined by former England and Chelsea captain John Terry to react to England's outstanding victory over Mexico, the growing belief around Thomas Tuchel's side and FIFA's controversial decision to overturn Folarin Balogun's suspension ahead of the quarter-finals.
Simon launches into a passionate criticism of FIFA and Gianni Infantino, arguing football's governing body has undermined its own rules by reversing Balogun's ban midway through the tournament. John questions why players should be punished for refereeing mistakes and believes the bigger issue is the standard of officiating at the World Cup.
The panel also heap praise on England's performance at the Azteca, with John hailing it as one of the nation's best displays in recent memory. Thomas Tuchel earns widespread acclaim for his tactical approach, while Jude Bellingham, Declan Rice, Jordan Pickford and Djed Spence all receive special praise after overcoming the altitude, heat and the challenge of playing with ten men. The discussion also turns to whether Gareth Southgate could ever have produced a performance of that calibre with the Three Lions.
Finally, the trio look ahead to England's quarter-final against Norway, debating how to stop Erling Haaland and Martin Ødegaard, whether Marcus Rashford should return to the starting XI and why Tuchel is beginning to convince even his biggest sceptics that the boys could finally be genuine contenders to bring football home.
