History has repeated itself for England as they have once again failed to beat the United States at the men's World Cup in Qatar.
A very cagey and tense match saw both teams fail to make any significant chances with England defending resolutely against a young American team, with Manchester United's Harry Maguire putting in a star performance.

The best chance arguably fell to the United States when Chelsea's Christian Pulisic struck the bar with a long range effort but there really wasn't much to get too excited about as both teams looked happy to secure a point even though it'll be disappointing considering that the Three Lions thrashed Iran 6-2 in their first game in Qatar.
Given the history between the two nations, the memes, jokes and the fierce rivalry between the two nations were all over social media.

Harry Maguire's unlikely dribble was one of the few highlights in a cagey opening few minutes.

If football can't decide things, maybe Duolingo has a solution.
