England's World Cup Last-16 Tie To Go Ahead As Scheduled

England's last-16 match with Mexico will kick off at its original time despite concerns over possible adverse weather in Mexico City.

England's World Cup last-16 meeting with Mexico will kick off as originally scheduled at 6pm local time on Sunday after officials opted against bringing the match forward.

Weather conditions in Mexico City had prompted discussions over a possible earlier start, but no changes have been made, with the situation continuing to be monitored.

Thomas Tuchel's squad also received a noisy reception upon arriving at their team hotel, where large numbers of Mexico supporters gathered ahead of the eagerly anticipated knockout clash.

The winners will progress to the quarter-finals of the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
