Who England will face in World Cup last 16 after win over Wales in final Group B game

England look likely to secure their place in the World Cup round of 16 stage as they lead Wales 3-0 in the second half of their final fixture in Group B. The Three Lions look set to go unbeaten in their group stage fixtures after beating Iran, drawing 0-0 against the USA and currently lead Wales.

Gareth Southgate's side have reached a semi-final and final in their last two major tournaments and will be hoping to go all the way and win the World Cup in Qatar. England enjoyed a perfect start to the World Cup after beating Iran 6-2, with Arsenal's Bukayo Saka and Chelsea's Raheem Sterling both getting on the score sheet.

The Three Lions faced a more difficult test in their second group stage match as they fought to secure a 0-0 draw against the USA after being second-best for the majority of the game. With the Three Lions leading fellow home nation Wales, England look set to face the runners-up from Group A in the round of 16, Senegal.
