England and Argentina are set to clash in the World Cup semifinals on July 14, 2026. The match, held at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, pits the defending champion Argentina against an England side that has shown strong form throughout the tournament.
Argentina, led by Lionel Messi, won the 2022 World Cup and has advanced to this stage after a penalty shootout victory over the Netherlands in the quarterfinals. England reached the semifinals by defeating France 2-1 in the quarterfinals, with goals from Harry Kane and Jude Bellingham.
Analysts note that England's depth and recent performances give them a slight edge, but Argentina's experience in high-pressure matches cannot be overlooked. The winner will face either Brazil or Germany in the final.
