Troy Deeney Identifies Team Poised to Upset England in World Cup

Former Premier League striker Troy Deeney has shared his thoughts on England's upcoming quarter-final match against Norway. He believes the game will be tough, as England has struggled to break down well-organised low block teams in the past.

Deeney expects Norway to be a formidable opponent, unafraid to use set pieces to their advantage. He notes that Norway is a cohesive team with no fear, driven by their desire to make history, and boasts a talented player like Erling Haaland up front.

Despite expressing confidence in England's chances of winning, Deeney thinks Argentina would still be a tough opponent to beat in a potential semi-final match. He emphasizes that it's time for England to put in a strong performance and make their mark in the tournament.
