England's WAGs, Kate Kane and Megan Pickford, expressed their excitement for the upcoming World Cup semi-finals in Atlanta following the Three Lions' win against Norway. The partners of Harry Kane and Jordan Pickford, respectively, took to Instagram to mark the team's advancement.
Kate Kane, wife of the England captain, shared a photo with Harry, stating, "Semi-finals here we come." In the image, Harry Kane is seen in a casual England T-shirt, appearing both exhausted and thrilled, with his arm around his wife. Kate was pictured in a red top featuring the captain's name and number.
Megan Pickford, wife of goalkeeper Jordan Pickford, posted a photo of their three children, Arlo, Ostara, and Misty, congratulating their father. The children were depicted in football kits with "Daddy" on the back. Megan described the night as "special" and noted that the World Cup "has a very special feeling."
The England team secured their spot in the semi-finals after Jude Bellingham scored twice in their match against Norway in Miami. The Three Lions will now face Argentina, led by Lionel Messi, in Atlanta on Wednesday.
England fans, including the WAGs, were present in Miami to support the team in their 2-1 extra-time victory. The squad faced some personnel challenges during the match. Jarell Quansah was unavailable due to a red card from a previous game against Mexico. Jordan Henderson also missed the match after sustaining a wrist injury from an incident involving an advertising hoarding. He remained in Mexico City while the rest of the squad returned to Kansas City. Reece James was fit enough to play, having recovered from a prior knock. Declan Rice, who had been dealing with a bug, played in the first half before being substituted. Rice had also been experiencing hamstring and lower back issues, which were reportedly exacerbated by his illness.
