England "unrivaled" in 2026 World Cup qualifiers

In the early morning of March 25, England defeated Latvia 3-0 in the second match of Group K of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers in Europe.

Reece James (minute 38), Harry Kane (minute 68) and Eberechi Eze (minute 76) were the ones who scored to bring victory to England.

With three points against Latvia, England temporarily leads Group K with 2 absolute victories, has 6 points, scored 5 goals and conceded no goals.

In Group K, in addition to England and Latvia, there are also Albania, Andorra and Serbia. The "Three-Four" are clearly the number 1 candidate for the top spot and a ticket to the 2026 World Cup. Serbia is considered England's biggest rival in this group.
