England — especially England — just can’t believe how well its football team is doing at the World Cup.

As a result, Google has noted an uptick in search queries for the term “Can England win the World Cup?”

Nice to see the British are keeping the faith.
Still not completely convinced, UK fans also asked Google “How good is Belgium at football?”

The answer, friends, is pretty damn good.
World number 12 England will take on world number three Belgium in the final group G match on 28 June. But both teams have already qualified for the next round.
