A place in the World Cup final is at stake as Argentina and England clash Wednesday in Atlanta. Argentina seeks to defend its title, while England aims for its first championship since 1966.
The winner will face Spain in the final.
This match writes the next chapter in a storied rivalry. Key moments include the 1986 "Hand of God" incident and contentious matches in 1998 and 2002.
England's Jude Bellingham is in superb form, scoring two goals in each of his last two knockout games. His performance reduces the team's reliance on captain Harry Kane.
Argentina's Lionel Messi leads the tournament with eight goals. At 39, he remains his team's central threat, though Argentina has developed a more balanced attack.
England enters as the slight favorite with deeper squad depth. However, Messi's individual brilliance can decide any match.
