FIFA World Cup 2026 | RO-16: England 3 - 2 Mexico

England booked their place in the FIFA World Cup 2026 quarter-finals with a thrilling 3-2 victory over Mexico at Mexico Stadium on 6 July 2026. England made the most of their chances despite having only six shots throughout the match. Jude Bellingham put his side ahead in the 36th minute before doubling the lead just two minutes later with another fine finish. Mexico responded through Julián Quiñones in the 42nd minute to keep the contest alive. Soon after the break, England defender Jarell Quansah was shown a straight red card in the 54th minute following a VAR review for a studs-up challenge on Jesús Gallardo. Reduced to ten men, England suffered a setback, but Harry Kane calmly converted a penalty in the 60th minute to restore their two-goal advantage, although he later received a yellow card.

Mexico refused to give up and dominated much of the match, recording 23 shots, 12 corners and forcing England onto the back foot. Raúl Jiménez scored from the penalty spot in the 69th minute to make it 3-2, raising hopes of a comeback. England, however, defended with great determination despite being a man down. Mexico continued to attack until the final whistle, but England's defence stood firm and prevented any further goals. England finished with four yellow cards and one red card, while Mexico received two yellow cards.

England now march into the quarter-finals, where they will face Norway. Mexico leave the tournament with pride after a spirited performance that fell just short.
