There have been so many times when England were such a tactically flat, stressed-out bunch that they could squeeze the joy out of battering even the meekest opposition, so against Panama you had to rub your eyes at the general levels of fun being had.
This was England as we rarely see them, the game won in the first half, a place in the second round with a match to spare and a general feeling of abandon that anything could happen. Harry Kane notched only the third World Cup hat-trick in English history, and then there was an unfamiliar competence observed on the basics of the game, especially two set-piece goals created for John Stones that demonstrated actual planning.
Everything that could go right for England did although they never felt lucky and they chuckled at Kane’s third that ricocheted off his heel while he was looking the other way. Somewhere in the Moscow outskirts one could only guess at the grand disdain Cristiano Ronaldo will have felt at being supplanted as the tournament’s top scorer in that manner.
It hardly needs saying that this was England’s biggest World Cup win but it was also World Cup football as enjoyment rather than the usual torture. Afterwards, Gareth Southgate conjured up the modern English pastoral when he said he was glad to have delivered goals for a public watching at home on a “warm Sunday afternoon”. A great vision of barbecues ablaze, televisions repositioned and six times a boozy roar across the back gardens.
Out in the scorching mid-afternoon of Nizhny Novgorod, an industrial goliath east of Moscow, England looked strangely at ease in a foreign land: with the heat, with the pressure of being the favourites, with the rhythm of tournament football. They once got to half-time against Andorra in Barcelona in a Euro 2008 qualifier without sticking a goal past the part-timers of the ski resort nation and yet this time they had buried the first within nine minutes.
Danny Murphy has come in for heavy criticism for his commentary during England’s 6-1 World Cup victory over Panama.
The former England midfielder is part of the BBC’s commentary team in Russia this summer and was selected as summariser for the Three Lions’ game second Group G game in Nizhny Novgorod alongside Guy Mowbray.
However, he was panned on social media for being openly biased, as well as his monotone delivery.

Viewers pointed out Murphy regularly referred to England as “we” during the team’s record rout over the Central American side.
One Twitter user called his co-commentary “absolute garbage”, with another urging the BBC to “get rid” of the 41-year-old former Liverpool midfielder.
“Dear BBC Sport. Can you asked Danny Murphy to stop referring to England as ‘we’ seeing as you’re a UK based channel and he should be an unbiased commentator,” another Twitter user wrote.
Another said: “Danny Murphy: ‘We we we...’ The BBC: impartial broadcasting.’”
Others described Murphy as “shockingly biased” and “embarrassing”.
However, other viewers defended Murphy, with one saying: “We are allowed to be patriotic... I’m sure they will be saying ‘we’ on other nations’ commentary.”
Some viewers also rounded on Murphy for his perceived ignorance of certain aspects of world football.
After he suggested “any team in Europe would be proud to have” Nizhny Novgorod Stadium as their ground, one Twitter user responded: “What about any of the teams with much bigger and better stadiums, Danny?”
Another wrote: “Only Danny Murphy could spoil such an enjoyable first half by talking complete s***e from first minute to last.”
Viewers also mocked Murphy earlier in the tournament for his commentary during Spain and Portugal's thrilling 3-3 draw.
"He can’t go over the wall," declared Murphy, moments before Cristiano Ronaldo fired a free-kick over the wall to to equalise in the 88th minute.
"That’s why Danny Murphy is Danny Murphy and Ronaldo is Ronaldo," quipped one Twitter user.
During the England-Panama game, some also voiced displeasure at the 41-year-old’s apparent lack of enthusiasm as the Three Lions recorded their biggest win in World Cup history.
