AL RAYYAN, Qatar: England marched into the last 16 of the World Cup as Group B winners after Marcus Rashford's double and a Phil Foden strike justified their first starts of the tournament in a 3-0 hammering of an outclassed Wales on Tuesday (Nov 29).
DOHA : The public clamour for Phil Foden's inclusion in England's starting line-up for Tuesday's clash against Wales had become so intense that there was a danger it could end in anti-climax.
Stephanie Frappart, Neuza Back and Karen Diaz will become the first all-female refereeing team for a men's World Cup match after they were named to take charge of the Costa Rica-Germany game in Group E on Thursday. Frappart, the fourth official for the Poland-Mexico Group C clash last week, will be the main referee as she reaches another milestone after being the first female to officiate at a men's World Cup qualifier in March and Champions League match in 2020. The 38-year-old Frenchwoman will be joined by Brazilian Neuza and Mexican Diaz as assistants. Salima Mukansanga of Rwanda and Yamashita Yoshimi of Japan are also taking part at the tournament in Qatar.
DOHA : England have greater expectation than when they reached the World Cup semi-finals four years ago, manager Gareth Southgate said as he looked ahead to Sunday's last-16 clash with Senegal.
Marcus Rashford's eye-catching performance in England's 3-0 win against Wales shows he "belongs" on the World Cup stage, according to Manchester United and international teammate Harry Maguire.
AL RAYYAN, Qatar : Marcus Rashford is a player transformed for England, manager Gareth Southgate said after the forward's double strike against Wales on Tuesday propelled England into World Cup last 16.
AL RAYYAN, Qatar: England coach Gareth Southgate's last two tournament near misses were accompanied by criticism of his conservatism in selection but a relatively radical switch to bring in Marcus Rashford and Phil Foden paid off handsomely in Tuesday's (Nov 29) 3-0 win over Wales.
Along with the Rashford double, Phil Foden found the back of the net as England outclassed Wales at the Ahmad bin Ali Stadium. After a sedate first half, the match came to life when Rashford curled home a free kick from the edge of the area in the 50th minute. An unmarked Foden footed a Harry Kane's cross into the net a minute later. Rashford then inflicted a final blow, finding the net with a shot that went through the legs of goalkeeper Danny Ward in the 68th minute.
