England are one of soccer’s powerhouses, but they have almost no trophies to show for. The famousThree Lionswon theWorld Cupat home in 1966 and that was it. Furthermore, they haven’t even reached the final again. Their best participationswere the semifinals inRussia 2018andItaly 1990.

TheUEFA Eurohistory forEnglandis even worse. 10 appearances and 0 titles. Still, the 2021 performance reaching the final at home is what established this team as one of the favorites towards the Qatar 2022 World Cup considering their roster is stellar with names such asHarry Kane, Phil Foden, Raheem Sterling andJack Grealish.

In the group stage of Qatar 2022, England cruised againstIran (6-2), tied with the United States (0-0) and beat Wales (3-0). That way, Gareth Southgate’s team clinched a ticket to the Round of 16 as first place. Now, the next challenge is Senegal and the consequences of a win would be tremendous.
