England celebrated a thrilling 3-2 victory over Mexico at the Azteca Stadium, securing their place in the 2026 World Cup quarterfinals against Norway. However, the joy was marred by an injury to veteran midfielder Jordan Henderson. The injury occurred when Henderson attempted to jump over an advertising board but fell awkwardly onto the pitch. He lay on the ground receiving medical attention for several minutes before being stretchered off and seen receiving oxygen on television footage.
England captain Harry Kane addressed the incident after the match, stating, "Henderson just fell there," but reassured that "I think he's okay." Goal scorer Jude Bellingham also commented on Henderson's condition, saying, "He's in some pain, but our medical team is fully in control of the situation." Bellingham added that it was best not to disclose too many details and noted the team's support for Henderson was "beautiful to see." The injury raised concerns amid England's World Cup campaign as they prepare to face Norway next.
