BBC opens player ratings for England’s World Cup match against Ghana

England’s second World Cup match, against Ghana, was under way when the BBC page was captured, and its player-rating tool was open for the game. Signed-in BBC users can score players from both teams out of 10.

The rater is scheduled to remain available until 30 minutes after the final whistle. After submissions close, the displayed rating reflects the average score from BBC Sport users who took part.

At the time of the captured page, no substitutions had been listed for either side. The source did not provide a scoreline, player ratings, line-ups, match incidents, or any final result, so this draft should be treated as an update on the rating feature rather than a match report.

For editors, the community angle is less about predicting the outcome and more about how supporters judge performances in real time, especially in a World Cup setting where early impressions can shift quickly.
