DARK SECRETS: When do england play mexico in world cup last 16 - The Real Truth

England are into the World Cup semi-finals after a narrow 2-1 win over Norway.

The Three Lions needed extra time to defeat the Scandinavians, but Jude Bellingham was the two-goal hero in Miami, Florida.

The midfielder struck in first-half stoppage time after Andreas Schjelderup opened the scoring at the Hard Rock Stadium, before he put Thomas Tuchel’s men ahead in the third minute of the additional half-hour.

And now they can look ahead to the last four, and a date with Argentina or Switzerland.

When do England play in World Cup semi-finals?

England now have three days off before their World Cup semi-final.

The Three Lions will line up in the second semi-final clash, scheduled for 8pm BST on Wednesday, July 15, 20216.

The Atlanta Stadium, more commonly known as the Mercedes-Benz Stadium will host the game.

Just 24 hours earlier, on Tuesday, July 14, France and Spain meet in Dallas in the first semi-final.

Also an 8pm BST kick-off, the two European giants will face off in Dallas.

Who will England play in semi-finals?

Unlike the last-16 win over Mexico, where the Three Lions knew Norway lay in wait in the quarter-finals, England had a little wait to find out who their semi-final opponents will be.

Argentina beat Switzerland after extra time, a few short hours after England beat Norway, to set up a semi-final clash with the Three Lions in Atlanta.
