How Many Finals Have England Been In?
England need Rice and Saka to drive a first World Cup final appearance since 1966, with odds set at 1703/1000, experts said.
- On Wednesday, England faces reigning world champions Argentina at Atlanta Stadium in a World Cup semi-final, with Coach Thomas Tuchel's side aiming to end a 60-year wait for World Cup glory.
- This fixture resumes a rivalry last contested in 2005, previously marked by Diego Maradona's "Hand of God" goal in 1986 and David Beckham's red card 12 years later, with Falklands War tensions adding historical weight beyond football.
- Remarkably, 39-year-old Lionel Messi faces England for the first time, while Captain Harry Kane insists "the game is against Argentina, not against Lionel Messi" and midfielder Declan Rice is fit after recovering from a sickness bug.
- Rejecting the idea of using rivalry as motivation, Tuchel stated he would not use it as "fuel," instead focusing on "what we can influence" and noting his squad is "really competitive, hungry and excited."
- Kane will earn his 121st cap to become England's highest-capped outfield player, as bookmakers estimate England's victory at odds of 1703/1000, with the winner advancing to Sunday's final.
