England World Cup History

England’s World Cup history is extremely well-known to those who follow sport in the country. Winners when they hosted in 1966, the final success over West Germany, a 4-2 victory after extra time, produced some of the most iconic English sporting moments, including Geoff Hurst’s goal that bounced on the line, and Kenneth Wolstenholme’s eternal commentary “they think it’s all over…well it is now!”

Since then though, it has been 60 years of hurt, with the semi-finals the furthest England have reached in the World Cup, though they have lost in the final of the past two European Championships. Those semi-final appearances came at Italia 90, when England lost on penalties to Germany for the first time, and in 2018, when knocked out after extra time by 2026 Group stage opponents Croatia.

England have also endured some infamous moments of misfortune at the World Cup, including Maradona’s “Hand Of God” goal in 1986, David Beckham’s red card in 1998, and Frank Lampard’s ghost goal against Germany in 2010.

How Did England do at the Last World Cup?

England reached the quarter finals in Qatar at the 2022 World Cup, making serene progress through their group, then beating Senegal 3-0 in the last 16. However, they came unstuck against France in the quarter finals, losing 2-1 to the eventual runners-up and defending champions after Kane missed a penalty to equalise.

England World Cup 2026 Prediction

England have a tricky group to navigate in the first stage of the World Cup, with Croatia, second and third at the past two World Cups, always a wily opponent, while Panama and Ghana will not make life easy. Nevertheless, England are expected to reach the quarter finals at minimum with their squad. Manager Thomas Tuchel is in charge specifically to target this tournament.

Given the draw and weight of expectation, we predict that England will reach the semi-finals.
