England vs Croatia FIFA World Cup 2026 Live Score: Harry Kane’s England take on Luka Modric’s Croatia.
FIFA World Cup 2026 Match Today Live Score: Jude Bellingham has restored England’s lead with a superb strike two minutes into the second half. The Three Lions lead 3-2, thanks to Bellingham’s goal and Harry Kane’s brace. Meanwhile, goals from Petar Musa and Martin Baturina had helped Croatia claw level twice in the first half of their Group L game of the FIFA World Cup 2026 at Dallas Stadium.
How the five goals were scored: Kane scored his and England’s first goal in the 12th minute from the penalty spot after getting two bites at it. Kane had seen his first penalty saved by Dominik Livakovic, but VAR ruled that the Croatia keeper had stepped off his line early, so a retake of the penalty was ordered. This time, Kane made no error! Then, Croatia scored a wonder goal in the 36th minute from Martin Baturina, when he put his foot through the ball to send it past a diving Pickford into goal. England’s one goal was restored once again by England captain Kane when he headed the ball in just minutes before half-time. But Petar Musa scored with the final kick of the first half to ensure that both teams went to the dug out with a 2-2 scoreline. At the restart, it took just two minutes for Bellingham to go on a haring down down the right flank before shooting the ball past the keeper for England’s third goal!
