With less than a week to go until the biggest sporting event on the planet begins, many of us are already starting to come down with a bout of World Cup fever.
The 2026 World Cup finals will start on Thursday, June 11, when co-hosts Mexico face South Africa at the iconic Azteca Stadium in Mexico City.
England fans, meanwhile, will have to wait until Wednesday, June 17 to see the Three Lions in action, with their Group L fixtures beginning with a clash against Croatia in Dallas on Wednesday, June 17.
The North American time zones make this World Cup a bit tricker for England-based fans to follow than previous tournaments.
England’s group first two group stage matches will kick off at 9pm BST, with their final game against Panama starting at 10pm
Needless to say, many England fans will have plans to watch the Three Lions at their local pub.
With a vibrant atmosphere, beer on-tap and huge screens, you can’t beat taking in an England game at your local boozer.
