Ahead of the huge semifinal in Atlanta, the eagerly awaited starting lineups have finally been confirmed. England XI (4-3-3): Pickford; James, Stones, Guéhi, Spence; Rice, Anderson, Bellingham; Rogers, Gordon, Kane. Argentina XI (4-4-2): E. Martínez; Molina, Romero, Lisandro, Tagliafico; Simeone, Paredes, Enzo, Mac Allister; Álvarez, Messi.
On England's side, Thomas Tuchel's most talked-about decision has become official: consistent with information that emerged the previous day, Morgan Rogers has been moved into the starting XI on the right flank; it marks the first time at this World Cup he will start such a critical match. Djed Spence has been preferred over Reece James at right-back, while John Stones lines up at the heart of defence alongside Marc Guéhi.
On Argentina's side, all eyes were on the striker selection, and the answer is clear: Julián Álvarez has been preferred over Lautaro Martínez, taking the field alongside Messi. Another notable detail is Giovanni Simeone stepping into midfield in the absence of Rodrigo De Paul, completing the three-man midfield alongside Leandro Paredes and Enzo Fernández. With both sides fielding their strongest available lineups in this giant contest, the winner will face the victor of France-Spain in Sunday's final.
