The Three Lions opened their points tally for the tournament with a last-gasp victory over Tunisia and Beckham is now fancying them to make the final in Moscow though they have difficult challenges ahead.

He said:“I believe Argentina will play against England in the final. I think obviously my choice would be England to win the competition, but that’s me being biased and passionate about my country. I’m very happy that we won the first game in the group. England is a very young team, they don’t have a lot of experience yet and the journey of the World Cup will become harder and harder because there are many good teams in the tournament.”
The Three Lions secured a close 2-1 win over Tunisia in their opening game of the World Cup but they could have quite easily scored twice the amount of goals, had a couple of refereeing decisions gone their way.
