Argentina have knocked England out of the FIFA World Cup 2026, coming from behind to win 2-1 in a dramatic semi-final played in Atlanta.

Thomas Tuchel's side had taken the lead and appeared on course for a place in the final, but Argentina scored twice in the closing stages to overturn the deficit and shatter England's hopes of lifting the trophy.

The turnaround was as sudden as it was ruthless — England had been in control for much of the contest before Argentina's late surge changed everything in a matter of minutes.

The defeat marks a painful exit from a home tournament for England, who had harboured genuine ambitions of going all the way at this World Cup. Tuchel's tenure now faces intense scrutiny following the semi-final collapse.

Argentina, the reigning world champions, advance to the final as they seek to defend their title on American soil.
