Where to watch England vs Ghana live at the 2026 FIFA World Cup
England takes the field this Tuesday (23) against Ghana with the chance to secure a place in the round of 16 of the 2026 World Cup. The duel, valid for the second round of Group L, takes place at 5pm (Brasília time) at Gillette Stadium, in Foxborough, in the United States.
After beating Croatia 4-2 in their debut, Thomas Tuchel’s team leads the group and has a star-studded squad. Harry Kane, Jude Bellingham and company want to maintain the momentum and avoid surprises against the Ghanaians, who also have three points after a hard-fought victory over Panama.
The likely English lineup has Jordan Pickford in goal, Reece James, Ezri Konsa, John Stones and Nico O’Reilly in defense. In the middle, Elliot Anderson and Declan Rice, with Noni Madueke, Jude Bellingham and Anthony Gordon supporting Kane. Bukayo Saka, still recovering, should start on the bench.
On the Ghana side, Carlos Queiroz should repeat the base that beat Panama 1-0 with a late goal. Benjamin Asare in goal, defensive line with Senaya, Adjetey, Opoku and Mensah. Thomas Partey should return to the middle, alongside Yirenkyi, Nuamah and others, with Ayew and Semenyo up front. The Portuguese coach highlights the group’s natural motivation against a powerhouse.
The recent history weighs in favor of England, which defeated Queiroz’s Iran 6-2 in the 2022 World Cup. But the Ghanaian commander warns that the African team has the speed in counterattacks and individual quality to make life difficult for the favorites.

England under pressure for results
Tuchel demands consistency from the team after the good start. Victory guarantees early classification and group leadership, depending on the other game in the round. The German coach emphasizes that Ghana presents different problems than Croatia, especially in the quick transition.
Declan Rice, who has been playing with pain since the end of 2025, confirmed he is fit. Bellingham, close to the 50-game mark for the national team, should play more advanced.
Ghana bets on determination and counterattack
Queiroz, in his fifth World Cup as coach, sees the clash as an opportunity to motivate the squad to the maximum. “It’s the easiest type of game to prepare for, because the players arrive already tuned in,” he said. The focus is to explore spaces left by English possession.
Caleb Yirenkyi, hero against Panama, and Antoine Semenyo are the main threats. Partey, experienced, should provide balance to the midfield.
Where to watch: the match is broadcast live on Globo, SporTV, ge, CazéTV and SBT.
