England book their place at the 2026 World Cup
England are on their way to next summer’s World Cup in Canada, Mexico and the USA after a 5-0 win against Latvia secured their qualification with two matches to spare.
Kelly Cates is joined by John Murray, Ian Dennis and former England defenders Conor Coady and Matt Upson to assess England’s performance in Riga, and how the team is developing under Thomas Tuchel.
The England boss explains how their game plan might change next summer in North America and how it feels to have sealed qualification. There’s also reaction from Anthony Gordon and Harry Kane.
Plus, we discuss the importance of the England captain and whether Jude Bellingham could miss out even if he’s fit next summer?
