England will aim to end 60 years' of hurt as they aim to end their wait for FIFA World Cup when they take the field in the USA. The Three Lions reached the semi-final in 2018 and quarter-final in 2022 and will hope to go the distance. England are amongst favourites but face a tricky group including Ghana and Croatia.
England comfortably topped their qualifying group, becoming the first European nation to secure a place at the World Cup. However, underwhelming displays in recent friendlies, including defeats to Senegal and Japan, have raised concerns among supporters. Much will depend on the performances of key stars such as Jude Bellingham and Harry Kane as England seek to rediscover their best form.
Harry Kane & Co face tough group
Group L presents a challenging route into the knockout stages. England begin with a high-profile clash against Croatia, the side that ended their dreams in the 2018 World Cup semifinal. They then face an improving Panama team that impressed in recent CONCACAF competitions, before taking on Ghana, whose squad features dangerous attacking talents such as Antoine Semenyo and Mohammed Kudus.
