How to Watch Mexico vs England Match: TV Channels, Streaming

Mexico and England will meet in the round of 16 match of the 2026 World Cup on Sunday, July 5, 2026, at 20:00 ET at Mexico City Stadium. Mexico have won all four of their games in the tournament, scoring eight goals while maintaining a perfect defensive record through the group stages and their last-32 victory against Ecuador. Julian Quinones was the team's leading striker with three goals, while Raul Jimenez contributed two goals, including one against Ecuador that brought his international goal total to 47 for Mexico. England are through to the last 16 for the third tournament in a row. Harry Kane has been a key figure, scoring five goals so far, including both goals in the comeback win over DR Congo. Kane became the first English player to score two goals in a World Cup knockout match since Gary Lineker in 1990. Here are the details for watching this match:  **When:** Sunday, July 5, 2026, 8:00 PM ET **Where:** Mexico City Stadium, Mexico **TV:** FOX **Streaming:** Watch free for 3 days on FOX One, FOX Sports. The key battle in this match was Jude Bellingham who found space between Mexico's midfield and back line. Bellingham was the link for England, dropping deep to set up play and still arriving in the box at the right times. England have created 53 chances in four games, and many of the best have started with him. Clean touches in deep channels can turn possession into a real threat quickly. Mexico must be disciplined. El Tri have not allowed a goal in four games, and their power is closing down space before attacks reach the box. Pinning Bellingham early and forcing him to the side would keep the game in Mexico's favor. Note some of England's possession in the middle of the park; this will tell whether Bellingham is in control of the match or trapped by Mexico's pattern of play. **Player to watch: Harry Kane.** Kane is one of the best strikers of his generation. So far in the tournament, Kane has been very effective in rescuing England from underwhelming performances. In this match, Kane will face the best defensive team in the tournament who will be very focused on stopping him. However, even if Kane can't score, he could also be invaluable by dropping back into midfield and helping create chances. If Kane struggles in this match, it could be a long day for Team Three Lions. On the other hand, if Kane can score early, it will make it easier for England to deal with the pressure of the crowd and the heights in the remainder of this match. --- ## Related Articles 1.
