Three matches, three venues, three lions.

Mondays are always better when they are World Cup Mondays and today is no different. The festival of football in Russia continues today with three more matches.

We get our first glimpse of England as they take on Tunisia tonight and it’ll be interesting to see if Gareth Southgate can instil belief in a very young squad to go far in the tournament. We kick off today with a Zlatan-less Sweden taking on the South Koreans and that’s followed by Belgium against Panama.
