Pressure is on Argentina - England defender Marc Guehi
England defender Marc Guehi insists the pressure is on Argentina as the Three Lions prepare to face the reigning champions in the World Cup semi-finals.

Tomorrow's match is England's second semi-final in three World Cups, but they have not reached the final since winning the tournament in 1966.

To do so this year they have to overcome Argentina, who they will face for the sixth time at a World Cup in the latest chapter of one of international football's biggest rivalries.

From Diego Maradona's infamous 'Hand of God' goal in 1986 to David Beckham's red card 12 years later, games between the two nations have rarely lacked drama.

Guehi says the pressure is on Argentina as they are the world champions.

Thomas Tuchel's side overcame Norway 2-1 after extra time to book their place in the semi-final at Atlanta Stadium.

Eight years ago in Moscow, England were knocked out by Croatia at this stage, having led 1-0 after Kieran Trippier's fifth-minute free-kick.

Guehi adds it's the game of their life and they have do what they can for their country.

England will take on Argentina at 7am tomorrow.

The winner of this match faces Spain after they beat France 2-nil this morning.

The third-place play-off will be played at 9am on Sunday.

Meanwhile, the FIFA World Cup final will be played at 7am on Monday.
