FIFA+: World Cup archive & programmes FREE on DAZN
England once again put fans through the wringer against DR Congo, as the Three Lions came from behind to snatch a late win against the stubborn Africans to secure a trip to one of football's meccas.
Harry Kane once again came to England's rescue just when it looked as though their tournament was over, but the victory means they are facing a whole new set of tasks as they meet co-hosts Mexico on their own patch.
Not only will Thomas Tuchel's men have to contend with the altitude at the Azteca, but they'll be facing a side who have only lost two competitive matches at their stadium in their entire history.

The hope is that England will fare better against a Mexican team that won't sit back and will look to go at Tuchel's side from the off. However, this is a Mexico side who have won four straight games at the finals and are yet to concede a goal, so can the Three Lions overcome those odds and book a quarter-final space?

Mexico vs. England team news
Mexico
The home side have a clean bill of health and could name an unchanged line-up as they welcome England to their iconic arena.
Previous XI: Rangel, Sanchez, Montes, Vasquez, Gallardo, Lira, Mora, Romo, Alvarado, Quinones, Jimenez
England
England will have to decide on the right-back problem again, with the hope that either Reece James or Jarell Quansah could come back into that spot.
Anthony Gordon's cameo off the bench against Congo could be rewarded with a return to the starting line-up, with Bukayo Saka also ready to start on the right.
Previous XI: Pickford, Spence, Konsa, Guehi, O'Reilly, Anderson, Rice, Bellingham, Madueke, Rashford, Kane
