England were lucky not to concede a penalty.
England were very lucky not to concede a penalty when Konsa brought down Adu. It was a desperate tackle and I can't understand why the Ghanaian players didn't complain to the ref about it. ⚽️🥅
Not 100% sure but the commentator seemed to imply it was offside prior to the possible foul

I could be wrong though, I was in a busy pub so hard to concentrate

What exactly does WOKE mean ,I have never been able to figure that one out :?

It simply used to mean being aware of social injustices like racism or inequality etc, but has since been weaponized into a political buzzword and has practically turned into a meme

Memes are basically modern digital equivalents of political cartoons or relatable inside jokes that get endlessly remixed and spammed across the internets to roast people or cope with life

So it's more of a concept rather than an abbreviation ?

Exactly, the word literally comes from the word "wake" to metaphorically mean your eyes are open to reality instead of being "asleep" to the various grave injustices
