World Cup draw: Deja vu for France, England, and Mexico v SAfrica

Mexico will play South Africa in the opening match of the 2026 World Cup on June 11 in Mexico City, 16 years after they also contested the 2010 tournament opener in South Africa. Title holders Argentina start against Algeria, and France won't want to be surprised against Senegal again like in 2002, while England face a tricky start as well against Croatia who beat them in the 2018 semi-finals.
