England has the opportunity to secure first place in their group today by turning their third match of the 2026 World Cup group stage into a formality and a chance to field reserve players. To achieve this, Thomas Tuchel’s side must defeat Ghana.
Yesterday brought encouraging news for England supporters as Declan Rice and Marcus Rashford returned to full training with the squad. The situation is less positive regarding Bukayo Saka. Even if the Arsenal winger, who is dealing with an Achilles tendon issue, makes the squad, he is unlikely to be fit enough to play a full 90 minutes. This almost certainly paves the way for Noni Madueke, who impressed in the match against Croatia.
The 2026 World Cup match between England and Ghana will kick off at 20:00 UTC.
