A bumper crowd at Wembley saw the first ever meeting between the nations at senior level

Head to head

England and Ghana will meet for the first time in a competitive fixture at the FIFA World Cup 2026.

The only previous game between the nations at men’s senior level came back in 2011 at Wembley Stadium when an Andy Carroll goal in the first half saw England take the lead.

But a stoppage-time equaliser from former Sunderland striker Asamoah Gyan, a star of the 2010 World Cup, saw the Black Stars rescue a draw from an entertaining match in front of an 80,000-strong crowd including what was the largest away following for a national team.
