Argentina and England Reach 2026 World Cup Semi-Finals

Argentina and England have both advanced to the semi-finals of the 2026 FIFA World Cup following hard-fought victories in the quarter-finals. Argentina, the defending champions, overcame Switzerland 3-1 after extra time.

Alexi Mac Allister opened the scoring in the 10th minute, but Switzerland equalized through Dan Ndoy in the 67th minute. However, Argentina regained the lead with a goal from substitute Julián Álvarez in the 112th minute, and Lautaro Martínez sealed the victory with a goal in the first minute of extra time.

England faced Norway, who initially took the lead with a goal from Andrea Schjelderup in the 36th minute. England equalized just before halftime through Jude Bellingham and ultimately won 2-1 with another goal from Bellingham in extra time.

The upcoming semi-final clash between Argentina and England is highly anticipated, as both teams have a rich history in football and are in excellent form.
