Dizzee Rascal about the World Cup: "England plays effortlessly"

Dizzee Rascal expresses his appreciation for the current World Cup, mentions memorable moments from the past and has confidence in England's performance.

In an interview as part of OneFootball's collaboration with Shoot Music, grime legend and England fan Dizzee Rascal shares his love for football as the World Cup is in full swing. "How exciting is the World Cup for you so far?" the interviewer asks. Dizzee answers enthusiastically: "Great goals have been scored. It's exciting to see how competitive the teams are and that they have made the tournament bigger with more teams. It's nice to see countries like Cape Verde and Curaçao getting so much attention."

When it comes to his favorite World Cup memories, he names the 1994 World Cup as one of the best tournaments in history: "Roberto Baggio's missed penalty, Colombia's goalkeeper René Higuita's scorpion kick and seeing Brazil on top form."

Dizzee also reflects on England's opening match against Croatia: "It was great to see them come back effortlessly after conceding the equalizer. It's nice to see how well the team is working together."

On the key player for England if they want to go far, he says: "I don't think it's about one key player; it's the team playing well together."

Finally, he is asked who will win the World Cup. "Of course I want England to win! Argentina and France look world class, just like the Netherlands."
