England and Croatia named for Cup opener; see the line-ups

England and Croatia named for Cup opener; see the line-ups England and Croatia make their FIFA World Cup debut this Wednesday (17), at 5 p.m. (Brasília time), at AT&T Stadium, in Dallas, in Group L, which also includes Ghana and Panama. Under Thomas Tuchel, the English team is looking to shake off the ghost of 60 years without a world title. After coming up just short as runners-up at Euro 2024, England arrive with a renewed squad — perhaps too much so for some English fans — while still relying on stars such as Harry Kane and Jude Bellingham. The coach suffered a last-minute setback with Tino Livramento being ruled out and replaced by Trevoh Chalobah. With the experience of a side that has established itself as a force in recent editions, Zlatko Dalić’s team heads into its third World Cup under the same manager. Croatia’s challenge lies in solving its lack of firepower up front, with Ante Budimir emerging as the main hope for goals in a team that blends veterans like Modric and Kovacic with a new defensive generation.
