England faces Argentina in a great World Cup semi-final. This is how you can secure your tickets
England crossed the line, just barely, to seal their place in the semi-finals of the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Despite falling behind to Norway in the first half of the all-European quarter-final clash in Miami, Jude Bellingham rose to the challenge once again, grabbing the equalizer in normal time and the winner in extra time to send the Three Lions faithful into delirium.
Now, England are just one win away from reaching their first World Cup final in 60 years and we know what happened then, in 1966. First though, of course, Thomas Tuchel’s side face an immense semi-final showdown in Atlanta against defending champions Argentina on Wednesday (July 15).
The Albiceleste have been involved in several jaw-dropping encounters during the 2026 FIFA World Cup and their quarter-final against Switzerland was also a thriller. Argentina needed goals in extra time from Julián Álvarez and Lautaro Martínez to beat a tenacious Swiss team that had been reduced to 10 men from the 72nd minute.
