They progressed from the group stage and reached the semi-finals, defeating Colombia on penalties in the Round of 16 and overcoming Sweden in the quarter-finals. Their semi-final loss to Croatia was heartbreaking, and a 2–0 defeat to Belgium in the third-place play-off offered little consolation. For the first time in decades, England felt like a team that could compete with the very best, even if the final results left fans frustrated and longing for more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1402\" data-end=\"1851\"\u003eAs of 2026, England comfortably secured automatic qualification for the 2026 World Cup, finishing top of their qualifying group with a series of strong performances.
