England began their FIFA World Cup™ campaign with victory, making it three consecutive tournaments in which they have won their opening fixture. Harry Kane led the charge with a superb brace, while Jude Bellingham and substitute Marcus Rashford added second-half goals to seal the result.
The match featured a dramatic and chaotic first half, producing four goals before the break. England twice took the lead through Kane’s clinical finishing, but Croatia responded strongly with strikes from Martin Baturina and Petar Musa to keep the contest level at half-time.
After a tense opening period, England took control in the second half. Bellingham restored their advantage shortly after the restart, and Rashford ensured the win with a late strike. Unlike their 2018 World Cup semi-final meeting, where England lost after scoring first, this time the Three Lions maintained their momentum to secure a deserved victory.
