England achieved a 3-2 victory over Mexico at Estadio Azteca to advance to the World Cup quarterfinals. The win marked Mexico's first World Cup loss at the venue, where they had previously been unbeaten in 10 matches.
Jude Bellingham scored two goals just 9 8 seconds apart during the match. Harry Kane also contributed by converting a penalty while England was down to 10 men.
Bellingham scored a header in the 36th minute and followed it with a second goal in the 38th minute after receiving a pass from Kane. The crowd of more than 80,000 witnessed the rapid scoring sequence.
Mexico's Julián Quiñones scored for El Tri in the 42nd minute. The match shifted when England's Jarell Quansah was sent off in the 54th minute following a dangerous foul on Jesús Gallardo.
England was subsequently awarded a penalty after a challenge by Mexico goalkeeper Raúl Rangel. Kane converted the penalty, marking his sixth goal of the tournament and his 14th in World Cup career, which tied him with West Germany's Gerd Müller for fifth on the all-time scoring list.
The match saw Kane become the first player since at least 1966 to both score and concede a penalty in a single World Cup game. Raúl Jiménez converted a kick for Mexico to bring the score to 3-2.
Despite relentless attacks from Mexico during the final 21 minutes and 11 minutes of stoppage time, England goalkeeper Jordan Pickford and the defense maintained the lead.
England is scheduled to face Norway in Miami Gardens, Florida, for a spot in the semifinals.
