Jordan Pickford, 24, is the youngest goaltender in the quarterfinals. England must score much more than any scorer.

England and Sweden will open the round of Saturday (7) quarterfinals at 11am. Sweden has the worst attack among the eight national teams remaining in the World Cup, scoring only six goals, and will have an English goalkeeper in front of them.

Jordan Pickford, just 24, the youngest quarterfinal of the world cup. England must rank much more for him than for any scorer.

When he is on purpose, Pickford is known to have a strong personality and a lot of attitude. But off the field, he's a shy boy with few words. When asked if England can leave, he simply says that it's one game at a time.

The trajectory of Jordan Pickford is impressive. Only three years ago, he did not play in the first division of England. But on Saturday he will be at Samara in the quarter-finals of the World Cup and with the responsibility of being the third most expensive goalkeeper in the history of football.

In 2017, Everton contracted it for $ 154 million, a figure that is only lower than that paid by the Brazilian Ederson and the Italian Buffon.

Sweden, which has an organized and efficient team in the World Cup finals, will not find any goalkeeper. Young, shy, but totally changing when he is under the beams.
