AGP Executive Report
Last update: 4 hours agoWorld Cup Knockouts (England-DR Congo): England start their Round of 32 in Atlanta against DR Congo, aiming to reach the last 16 and avoid a late-night finish. Coach Thomas Tuchel says he wants the match to feel “entertaining” for young fans, but warns Congo may try to spoil the flow. Injuries & lineup pressure: Right-backs Jarell Quansah and Reece James miss the game, leaving Tuchel to decide between Djed Spence and Ezri Konsa at right-back. Portugal-Croatia spotlight (Toronto): In the other big Croatia-linked tie, Portugal face Croatia in Toronto, with the winner set for the round of 16 against Spain or Austria. Croatia’s star narrative: Luka Modrić is framed as likely in his final major World Cup run, with Croatia set up for another knockout test after edging through Group L. Local angle (Zagreb/region): Salzburg has started a summer ban on visitors driving into its historic centre—an overtourism traffic move that echoes the kinds of crowd-management debates Croatia cities face.
