England vs Andorra

On Saturday, September 6, 2025, England secured a 2-0 victory over Andorra at Villa Park in Birmingham, extending their perfect start to the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers under manager Thomas Tuchel. The match saw England dominate possession with 83%, but they struggled to break down Andorra’s resolute defense. Despite the overwhelming possession, England’s attacking play lacked sharpness, leading to a less-than-convincing performance.

The breakthrough came in the 25th minute when Andorra’s Christian García inadvertently turned a cross from Noni Madueke into his own net, gifting England the lead. In the 67th minute, Declan Rice doubled the advantage with a header from Reece James’ precise cross, sealing the win for the hosts.

Despite the comfortable scoreline, England’s performance raised questions about their attacking efficiency. The team registered seven shots on goal but struggled to break down Andorra’s defensive setup. The match highlighted the need for improvement in creating clear-cut chances, especially as tougher opponents await in the qualifiers.

For Andorra, the result was another setback in their World Cup qualifying campaign, leaving them without a point after five matches. Their defensive resilience was commendable, but they offered little in attack, failing to register a shot on target throughout the match.

Looking ahead, England will face a more challenging test against Serbia on Tuesday, September 9, 2025. The upcoming match is expected to provide a clearer indication of England’s readiness for the World Cup, as they aim to maintain their top position in Group K.
