England midfielder Declan Rice says he doesn’t understand why people criticize his country despite his performances. And even deserves credit.

“There are a lot of twists and turns in this tournament. You can’t get anything easily,” Rice told a news conference on Thursday.
“That’s why we did so well. But we don’t get the credit we deserve. There was a chance that we were embarrassed in the three games we played. But we performed well in every game.”
“You see some big nations slip up, but we’ve never been in a situation where we feel the pressure. We often feel that we are in control of it within our group.”
For the round of 16, England will face Senegal on Sunday night, December 4, at 2:00 AM (Thailand time).
