England's footballers advanced to the World Cup quarterfinals on July 6, 2026, after a 3:2 win over hosts Mexico at the Azteca Stadium. The round-of-16 match began with an hour-long delay due to a storm and lightning near the stadium. England managed to see out the duel despite playing the second half with ten men following Jarell Quansah's red card. hnonline.sk ↗
Mexico entered the match with a record of four wins and no goals conceded at the tournament. The hosts got on the scoresheet with strikes in the 42nd and 69th minutes, but England responded at the decisive moments. The main protagonist was Jude Bellingham, who scored twice and, after the match, called the evening his best in an England shirt. teraz.sk ↗
English captain Harry Kane added his sixth goal of the championship, moving him among the tournament's most prominent scorers. The victory sparked major celebrations for the English team, which nevertheless had an unpleasant aftermath. Non-playing squad member Anthony Gordon suffered an injury after the celebrations of the advance and ended up in hospital. sport.sk ↗
Following the defeat, Mexico bid farewell to their home World Cup, while England are among the top eight teams at the World Cup for the third consecutive time. In the quarterfinals on July 11, they will face Norway, who eliminated Brazil. irozhlas.cz ↗
