England 3–2 Mexico! Can They Now Go All the Way?

England are into the World Cup quarter-finals after a dramatic 3–2 victory over Mexico at the Azteca – but can Thomas Tuchel’s side now go all the way?

Glen de la Cour is joined by Steve Grant and Alfie House to reflect on England’s tournament so far, including the uneven group stage, the escape against DR Congo and a memorable night in Mexico City. Steve shares his experience from inside the Azteca before the panel looks ahead to Saturday’s quarter-final against Erling Haaland and Norway.

The panel also discusses France’s status as favourites, the prospect of facing Argentina or Switzerland, the expanded 48-team format, FIFA controversy, hydration breaks, manufactured fan culture and the teams and moments they have most enjoyed watching.

Before all of that, there is a Southampton FC catch-up covering Ross Stewart’s departure, the released list, James Bree’s new contract, Saints’ opening Championship fixtures, the ongoing uncertainty around Tonda Eckert, the new home kit and the reduction in funding for the women’s team and academy.
