Jude Bellingham frustrated by defensive Ghana as England held to World Cup group stage draw
Neither side was able to find the target at the Boston Stadium on Tuesday, as Nico O'Reilly headed against the crossbar before Harry Kane blasted the rebound over the crossbar from close-range for their best chance of the tie.
Ghana, meanwhile, had two strong shouts for a penalty waved away, as first Jordan Pickford appeared to foul Prince Adu inside the area, before Adu was upended by Ezri Konsa, also inside the England penalty area in the dying minutes of the match.
England remain in a strong position to qualify for the knockout rounds after starting their World Cup campaign with a comfortable 4-2 win over Croatia.
But Ghana and Croatia will also fancy their chances of making it to the round of 32, on four and three points respectively.
It is the fourth consecutive tournament where England have drawn their second game after starting with a win.
Speaking after the match, a downcast Bellingham said on IOL: "Very frustrating. Like, second game fever, you know, the same as always with us.
"It feels like in all the tournaments I've been to, it's been the same, a decent performance to start and a good win.
"And then just the second one frustrated a little bit with how they defended, how they set up… credit to them. They got exactly out of the game what they played for, couldn't quite break them down."
Ahead of facing Panama, who they thrashed 6-1 in the group stage of the 2018 World Cup, the Real Madrid midfielder added that the team are confident of a win against the American side.
"It's important for us not to get too negative, not to get too het up on it," he said.
“No worries, no stress, no drama at all in there.”
