Wayne Rooney, former England captain, has predicted that England can defeat Argentina in the World Cup semi-final, but expressed doubts about their quarter-final performance against Norway. Rooney's comments come after England's narrow victory, which he described as unconvincing.
Rooney agreed with manager Thomas Tuchel's assessment that the team needs to improve to overcome Argentina. 'We have the quality to beat them, but we must play better than we did against Norway,' Rooney said in an interview.
The semi-final is scheduled for later this week, with England aiming to reach their first World Cup final since 1966. Argentina, led by Lionel Messi, are considered strong opponents.
