England: Quarter-finals
How England performed
England qualified for the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar unbeaten, winning eight and drawing two of their ten Group I fixtures, with 39 goals scored and three conceded. Kane scored 12 of them, including a hat-trick in a 5–0 win over Albania and four in the 10–0 victory away to San Marino.
At the finals, Gareth Southgate's side, again captained by Kane, opened with a 6–2 win over Iran in which Saka scored twice, followed by a goalless draw with the United States. Rashford's two goals helped beat Wales 3–0, with Foden also on target, and goals from Henderson, Kane and Saka saw off Senegal 3–0 in the round of 16. The run ended in the quarter-final, where England lost 2–1 to France despite a Kane penalty. Saka and Rashford each finished with three goals, and England's record of three wins, a draw and a defeat came with 13 goals scored and four conceded. It fell short of the fourth-place finish of 2018.
