Jude Bellingham recorded a brace and Harry Kane scored his sixth goal of the World Cup and added an assist as England outlasted Mexico 3-2 in a round of 16 instant classic on Sunday night at Mexico City.

England played a man down for the last 48 minutes, including 12 in stoppage time, after Jarell Quansah picked up a straight red card, handing Mexico a rare loss at Estadio Azteca.

England will face Norway in the quarterfinals on July 11 at Miami Gardens, Fla. Norway defeated Brazil 2-1 earlier Sunday.

Julian Quinones and Raul Jimenez scored goals as Mexico fell to 70-3-17 at the famed stadium since it opened in 1966.

The start of the match was delayed an hour due to fierce rainstorms in the 7,200-foot elevation but the weather was a nonfactor during the intense match.

England goalkeeper Jordan Pickford made three saves, while Mexico counterpart Raul Rangel stopped two shots.

Mexico had a 21-6 edge in shots and put six on target to England’s five.

England looked in trouble when they went down to 10 players while holding a 2-1 lead.

Quansah made a sliding tackle at Mexico’s Jesus Gallardo and his high spikes collided with Gallardo’s left shin. The play was reviewed and Quansah was given a red card in the 54th minute.

Six minutes later, England padded their lead. The sequence started with a long ball bouncing into the Mexico box. England’s Anthony Gordon was in pursuit and Rangel came out and took Gordon down and a penalty kick was awarded.

Kane stood at the spot before sending a right-footed rocket into the left corner of the net to give England a 3-1 advantage. Kane is one goal off the lead in the Golden Boot competition.

A short time later, Kane was called for a high kick and Mexico were awarded a penalty kick. Jimenez took it in the 69th minute and slowly approached before kicking a left-footer into the left side of the net for his third goal of the tournament.

England were passive for most of the first half before Bellingham scored twice in 98 seconds.

Bukayo Saka set up the first one in the 36th minute with some nice maneuvering in the attacking area. He sent a cross to Bellingham, who met the ball with a stellar diving header that went into the left side of the net to give England the lead.

Then Mexico were sloppy in the midfield and England came up with a theft and moved downfield. Kane had the ball and sent it over to Bellingham, who knocked in a right-footer to give England a 2-0 lead in the 38th minute on his fourth goal of the World Cup.

Mexico answered in the 42nd minute off a free kick. Roberto Alvarado sent a left-footed boot toward the box and the ball caromed off the leg of England’s Ezri Konsa. It went directly to Quinones, who sent a right footed-shot into the upper portion of the net for his fourth goal.

Earlier, Mexico had a big chance in the 15th minute but Jimenez’s close-range header was stopped by the left hand of Pickford.

Eury Perez dominated with seven perfect innings and the Miami Marlins slugged four homers before holding on for a wild 9-8 victory over the Athletics to complete a three-game sweep Sunday at West Sacramento, Calif.

The Marlins immediately lost the perfect game and no-hitter in the eighth inning once Perez was pulled, as Lake Bachar walked Lawrence Butler and gave up a single to Joshua Kuroda-Grauer. Jonah Heim belted a grand slam and had a career-high six RBIs as the A’s clawed back from down 8-0.

Trailing 9-5, Zack Gelof singled off Pete Fairbanks to start the ninth and Butler followed with a double. Gelof scored on a passed ball by Joe Mack before Fairbanks retired two batters. Fairbanks then walked Max Muncy, who moved to second on defensive indifference, and Heim delivered a two-run single. But Brian Serven grounded out to end the contest.

Right-hander Perez (5-6) struck out eight while throwing 92 pitches. It’s the third time the 23-year-old has pitched seven innings in his career.

Mets 10, Braves 9

Nolan McLean settled down after a rocky start to throw six solid innings and visiting New York survived an improbable ninth-inning comeback to beat Atlanta and end a three-game losing streak.

Colson Montgomery and Kyle Teel each hit two-run homers and Tristan Peters had a solo shot against Guardians starter Tanner Bibee.

Cleveland’s Colin Holderman (4-2) failed to retire a hitter in the sixth and was charged with the loss when Erik Sabrowski induced Antonacci’s groundout. Gabriel Arias belted a three-run shot for the Guardians in the fifth off Fedde, after Chase DeLauter had a two-run homer and Daniel Schneemann added an RBI single in the first.

Neymar’s legendary career for Brazil is over, the forward said following the 2-1 loss to Norway in the round of 16 game on Sunday.

The 34-year-old was emotional in an interview with TV Globo as he was in tears at the conclusion of the match in East Rutherford, N.J., where he scored Brazil’s lone goal on a penalty kick in stoppage time.

“I tried, I tried. Now it’s over. I started here, I finished here,” Neymar said.

He had made his first international appearance for Brazil in a friendly against the United States on April 10, 2010, at MetLife Stadium, the same venue as on Sunday, and scored in his debut.

Neymar, if he indeed retires from suiting up for Brazil, finishes as the country’s all-time leading scorer with 80 goals. The legendary Pele, who recorded 77, was the only Brazilian in four World Cups before Neymar matched him on Sunday.

Cafu had 142 appearances for Brazil, with Neymar’s 130 second on the all-time list.

Neymar’s previous goal for Brazil came in 2023, the last time he played for the national team. Injuries have played a major part as he tore his ACL in 2023 and missed Brazil’s first two group-stage games at the 2026 World Cup because of a right calf injury.

He entered as a substitute and played 15 minutes against Scotland on June 24 and came on the field in the 67th minute for the match Sunday against Norway.
