England sealed their place in the last 16 of the Qatar 2022 World Cup after a 3-0 win over Wales in the final group game. The English team advanced to the next stage of the World Cup as the leader of group B, as they finished on top with seven points, and what better way than by winning with a hefty score.

The goal took a while to arrive in this match, as it was not until the second half when the net was moved. In the 50′ Marcus Rashford scored the first goal of the match and just a minute later, Phil Foden extended the lead for his side. In the 68th minute, Marcus Rashford again made his presence felt on the scoreboard, with the goal that put the game to an end and filled the victors with confidence.

Marcus Rashford stole the limelight for his outstanding performance. The English striker has gained fame in recent years for his philanthropic work, specifically helping the neediest children in Great Britain, for which he was awarded by Queen Elizabeth; in the match corresponding to Group B of the competition, he scored a brace, including a great goal from a free kick, as well as contributing another goal.

With this victory, the team coached by Gareth Southgate reaffirms itself as one of the strong teams of this World Cup, because of the three matches they played, they scored in two of them. Of the three matches played, they scored two wins and one draw, giving them a total of seven points, surpassing the United States, who also qualified for the last 16, and leaving Iran and Wales out.

TAA came on after 57 minutes

One of the most eye-catching moments of the match was when the television camera focused on Liverpool's Trent Alexander Arnold during the national anthem ceremony. The right-back was caught looking in the direction of manager Gareth Southgate and was not singing the national anthem. It should be recalled that there has been controversy over TAA's non-alignment at the World Cup.
