England defeated Mexico three to two in a thrilling World Cup Round of 16 match at Estadio Azteca, marking Mexico's first loss at the venue in World Cup history.

Mexico's Julián Quiñones and Raúl Jiménez each scored, but England held on to advance to the quarterfinals. Norway also made history by defeating Brazil two to one, with Erling Haaland scoring both goals in the final minutes to send his team to the quarterfinals for the first time. Brazil's Neymar scored a late penalty, but it was not enough to change the outcome. In other news, Folarin Balogun of the United States was cleared to play against Belgium after a controversial intervention by President Donald Trump, who called FIFA to request a review of Balogun's one-game suspension. The U.S. team is set to face Belgium in the Round of 16 later today. Mexico's coach Javier Aguirre expressed disappointment after the loss, stating, "To dream and then fall like this hurts deeply, but the players should leave with their heads held high." Meanwhile, England's coach Thomas Tuchel praised his team's mentality, saying, "We overcame every obstacle that was thrown our way."
