Match overview
England needed a win to progress and Gary Lineker delivered with a first-half hat-trick. Poland had no answer to England’s attacking play, and the result sent England into the knockout stage.
Trivia
Lineker’s hat-trick was the first by an England player at a World Cup since 1966. Poland were eliminated after this defeat.
