What is England’s ITV curse?
England have played on ITV 29 times in major tournaments since 1998, including the World Cup that year.
Out of those 29 games, the Three Lions have won just SEVEN times.
They have lost nine and drawn 13 on the channel, including this year’s dreary 0-0 draw against USA.
However, England’s last-16 clash against Senegal ended in victory despite being shown on ITV.

How have Three Lions results fared on BBC and ITV?
The BBC on the other hand boast a far better record, and showed England’s 3-0 win over Wales last night, having also shown the win over Iran last week.
The Three Lions have played on the Beeb 27 times in major tournaments since 1998 and they have won an impressive 19 out of those games.
And the big broadcaster has shown England lose just three times in major tournaments since France 98′.
