VOLGOGRAD, Russia (Reuters) - For former England defender Sol Campbell, the sight of players grabbing and shoving each other in the penalty box at the World Cup in Russia brings back painful memories.

On two occasions that haunt England fans, Campbell wheeled away to celebrate what he thought were late winners in major tournaments, only for referees to rule that team mates had committed fouls on both occasions.
