Bellingham's double blast

The foundation of England's victory was laid by Jude Bellingham, who put Mexico on the back foot by scoring two goals in just 98 seconds in the first half. This defeat is huge for Mexico, as it was only their third defeat in the last 90 matches at their home ground, Azteca Stadium. The team had to play with only 10 players after England player Jarrel Kwansa received a red card during the match. Coach Thomas Tukel's team achieved a spectacular victory despite these challenges.

The geographical location of the Azteca stadium, i.e. being very high above sea level, was also a major challenge for the players. But the England team made no mistakes in converting the chances into goals and this brilliant finishing broke Mexico's World Cup dream.
