Is it coming home? Where to watch England's World Cup semi-final in Eastbourne tonight
England are just one game away from a first World Cup final in 60 years – but Lionel Messi’s Argentina stand in their way.
The Three Lions have grinded their way to another semi-final in a major tournament after an extra-time victory over Norway on Saturday, July 11.
That success followed a late-night classic in which Thomas Tuchel’s side knocked out host nation Mexico, with pubs staying open until 5am on Monday, July 6 to accommodate fans across the UK.
England now face the reigning World Cup champions in an encounter fraught with history and controversy, 40 years on from Diego Maradona’s ‘Hand of God’.
The winners tonight will face Spain in the final on Sunday, July 19, while the losers will take on France in the dreaded third-place playoff on Saturday, July 18.
