England squeezed out a victory against the Democratic Republic of the Congo in the 2026 FIFA World Cup round of 32 on Wednesday, with the final score of 2-1, passing through to the next stage, APA reports.

The first half of the match proved difficult for the Three Lions, as Congolese Brian Cipenga scored in the seventh minute, with the team managing to not only defend its goal but also create more chances by the end of the 45th minute. However, the second half was lethal for the African team, as England's captain Harry Kane scored goals in the 75th and 86th minutes, catapulting his team to the round of 16 of the tournament.

England will now face Mexico, one of the hosts, on July 6.
