- England manager Thomas Tuchel has opted to start Morgan Rogers in the World Cup semi-final, explaining his decision was based on a "feeling" and the player's recent form.
- Rogers, a 23-year-old Aston Villa midfielder, is anticipated to play on the right wing, despite it not being his usual position.
- Tuchel praised Rogers' stellar Premier League campaign, where he scored 10 goals and made six assists, and his impressive training sessions.
- Further changes to the lineup include Reece James and Djed Spence being brought into the defence, replacing Ezri Konsa and Nico O’Reilly.
- James returns after recovering from a hamstring injury, while Spence earned his spot following strong performances as a substitute in previous matches.
