England defeats Mexico 3-2 to reach World Cup quarter‑finals

England advanced to the FIFA World Cup quarter‑finals after a 3‑2 victory over co‑hosts Mexico at the Estadio Azteca in Mexico City. Jude Bellingham scored twice within two minutes (36′ and 38′) to give the Three Lions a 2‑0 lead, followed by a Harry Kane penalty in the 60′ to make it 3‑1. Mexico responded through Julian Quinones (42′) and a Raul Jiménez penalty (69′). England played most of the second half with ten men after Jarell Quansah received a straight red card in the 54′ after a VAR review.

The match was delayed by an hour because of adverse weather and featured a high‑temperature, electric atmosphere. Post‑match, England captain Harry Kane called for calm before the upcoming quarter‑final against Norway in Miami, while manager Thomas Tuchel criticised several refereeing decisions. The result also sparked emotional reactions across Mexico, with fans and public figures expressing disappointment despite the team's strong performance.

England’s win continues their unbeaten run in the tournament and sets up a clash with Norway in Miami on 11 July, while Mexico’s elimination marks their first round‑of‑16 loss at a home‑hosted World Cup.
