England and Ghana play out a 0-0 draw in their second Group L match at Gillette Stadium near Boston, leaving both teams on four points. England have possession and territorial pressure, with reports citing around 79% of the ball and a possession record for the match, but they do not convert dominance into goals. Ghana defend in a compact, organized shape, limiting England’s chances and forcing many efforts from distance. Multiple outlets note Ghana’s goalkeeper Benjamin Asare is not seriously tested for long stretches.
As the match develops, Ghana create moments to absorb pressure and look to counter, while England’s midfield struggles to find openings between lines and Harry Kane is often isolated. England make substitutions in the second half to increase attacking threat, including Bukayo Saka and Eberechi Eze, yet Ghana continue to block passes and clear danger. England’s late moments include a substitute Nico O’Reilly header that hits the crossbar and a follow-up by Kane that misses, plus a goal-line clearance by Ghana in stoppage time. The result keeps knockout hopes alive for both sides and preserves Ghana’s clean sheet.
