England and France meet in the FIFA World Cup 2026 third-place playoff after suffering heartbreaking semifinal exits, with both teams aiming to end their campaigns on a high.

England came agonisingly close to reaching their first World Cup final since 1966 but were stunned by Argentina in a dramatic 2-1 defeat. Anthony Gordon's second-half strike had put the Three Lions on course for a historic victory before Argentina mounted a late comeback, with Enzo Fernndez and Lautaro Martnez scoring in the closing stages to snatch a place in the final.

France, meanwhile, saw their World Cup hopes dashed after a disappointing 2-0 loss to Spain in the other semifinal. Didier Deschamps' side struggled to create clear-cut chances as Spain booked their place in the title clash.

Now, two of Europe's football powerhouses go head-to-head for third place in what is often called the toughest match in footballthe game neither team wanted to play. Can England bounce back from their semifinal heartbreak, or will France finish their campaign with a consolation victory?

England (4-2-3-1):

Jordan Pickford, Djed Spence, John Stones, Marc Guhi, Nico O'Reilly, Elliot Anderson, Declan Rice, Morgan Rogers, Jude Bellingham, Anthony Gordon, Harry Kane

France (4-2-3-1):
