  1. Can England really storm Mexico's mythical Azteca?

    England may have only pulled off a great escape against DR Congo moments before, but Thomas Tuchel couldn't help but almost immediately turn his attention to his team's Mission: Impossible in Mexico. "I'm just coming from this match, and still trying to enjoy it," the German told reporters after a late double from Harry Kane earned the Three Lions a dramatic 2-1 win in Atlanta.

  2. Mbappe penalty downs Paraguay but Barcola & Olise underwhelm

    Kylian Mbappe scored the only goal of the game from the penalty spot as France progressed to the quarter-finals of the World Cup with a laboured 1-0 win over an aggressive and cynical Paraguay side on Saturday evening. The South Americans, who upset Germany in the previous round, were always expected to make for awkward and uncompromising opponents for the tournament favourites but it was nonetheless surprising just how much Didier Deschamps' stellar forward line struggled to create chances in Philadelphia.

  3. WC26 Power Rankings: Argentina lose top spot!

    The real World Cup is finally under way! After a group phase almost completely devoid of jeopardy because of the tournament's farcical format, the first batch of knockout games treated us to some long overdue drama, with Germany and Netherlands among the big names to fall in the round of 32. A couple more heavyweights could have been kayoed too, though.

  4. England should stick with Rice at right-back experiment

    Thomas Tuchel has some big decisions to make in his England side as they head into their round of 16 game with Mexico in Mexico City. England may be the higher-ranked side, here, but they're not clear favourites. The Azetca - as it is usually known - is a truly horrible place for visiting teams. Mexico have lost just two competitive games there ever. The altitude, the heat, the humidity, the tens of thousands of passionate home fans: everything seems to be going against England here.
