ENGLAND START WORLD CUP WITH 4-2 VICTORY AGAINST CROATIA - SEND US YOUR THOUGHTS

Supporters in Driffield and the Wolds filled local pubs and living rooms on Wednesday night to watch England make a winning start to their World Cup 2026 campaign.

Thomas Tuchel's side won 4-2 against Croatia after a rollercoaster 90 minutes in Dallas.

Harry Kane put England ahead with a retaken penalty in the 12th minute before Croatia's Martin Baturina equalised.

Kane was on the end of a Declan Rice corner to make it 2-1 but it was all-square at the break when Petar Musa scored in first half stoppage time.

Jude Bellingham made sure it was a perfect start to the second half for England when he made it 3-2, before substitute Marcus Rashford rounded off the scoring in the 85th minute.
