AC Milan appoints Rúben Amorim as Head Coach

AC Milan appoints Rúben Amorim as Head Coach

AC Milan officially named Rúben Amorim as their new head coach on Tuesday, June 16, 2026.   The contract is set to last until 2028, with an option for an extra year. He takes over from Massimiliano Allegri, who was let go after the team finished fifth in Serie A with 70 points, missing out on Champions League qualification. Milan ended just 1 point behind Como, finishing in 4th place with 71 points.   Thus, the challenge for the 2026-27 Season is significant.

AC Milan Tickets

 

The Mission

Milan’s management has tasked Amorim with undertaking a comprehensive rebuild to bring the club back to its former prominence in the Serie A standings.

Background

Amorim, a 41-year-old Portuguese manager, recently faced a tough 14-month period at Manchester United, where he was released in January. Before that, he earned high praise for his successful tenure at Sporting CP, where he secured two Primeira Liga titles.

 

What is Amorin’s Tactical Approach?

Amorim is recognized for his tactical rigidity and his preference for a structured 3-4-3 (or 3-4-2-1) formation.

According to Gerry Cardinale, Managing Partner of RedBird Capital Partners. “Rúben believes in high press attacking football with quick transitions that enable greater goal scoring. His philosophy aligns perfectly with our vision, while his leadership qualities and track record in developing players stood out to us. We believe in Rúben and are excited to welcome him to the Club.”

Rúben Amorim expressed:  “There are ambitions that stay with you throughout your career, and coaching AC Milan has always been one of mine.  I know exactly what this Club means: history, prestige and an extraordinary fanbase around the world. It is a challenge I embrace with pride and enthusiasm, fully aware of what these colors represent. I can’t wait to get started and to experience every day the passion that drives AC Milan.”

Match preview: Mexico vs England

England’s World Cup campaign now takes them to the stadium officially known as Estadio Banorte, referred to as Mexico City Stadium during the 2026 tournament, where they will meet co-hosts Mexico in the last 16. The venue carries special significance for the Three Lions, as it was the scene of one of the most talked-about matches in their history four decades ago.

Forty years have passed since England were eliminated by Argentina in the quarter-finals of the 1986 World Cup at the same ground. After a goalless first half, Diego Maradona opened the scoring with the infamous “Hand of God” goal before producing a remarkable solo effort for his second. Gary Lineker reduced the deficit late on, but England’s tournament came to an end.

The circumstances are different this time, but England know they face another demanding challenge. Along with taking on one of the tournament’s co-hosts, Thomas Tuchel’s players must also cope with the high-altitude conditions in Mexico City.

Date: Sunday, July 5, 2026
Kick-off Time: 18:00 Mexico City local time (UTC-6)
Venue: Mexico City Stadium, Mexico City, Mexico
Venue Capacity: 87,000
Opponents: Mexico vs. England (Round of 16)
The match is played at an altitude of approximately 2,240 meters. This thin air reduces friction, causing the football to travel significantly further and faster through the air, requiring English players to adjust their long passes

England seek another place in the quarter-finals

England reached the knockout stages by finishing first in their group before overcoming DR Congo 2-1 in Atlanta. Harry Kane struck twice in the closing stages to complete the comeback, with his first goal arriving from a header.

Kane’s aerial ability has become a defining feature of his tournament. He has now scored four headed goals in World Cup competition, including three during the current edition. Since records began in 1966, only Miroslav Klose, with seven, and Gerd Müller, with five, have registered more headed World Cup goals than the England captain.

Progressing past Mexico would send England into the last eight for a third consecutive World Cup, following their semi-final appearance in 2018 and quarter-final run in Qatar four years later. The only previous occasion they achieved quarter-final qualification or better at three successive tournaments came between 1962, 1966, and 1970.

Jordan Pickford is also approaching a personal milestone. The Everton goalkeeper received criticism after failing to stop Brian Cipenga’s near-post strike against DR Congo, but another appearance would be his 17th at the World Cup, drawing him level with Peter Shilton for the most by an England men’s player.

Mexico continues its impressive home tournament

Mexico has enjoyed an outstanding campaign on home soil, winning all three of their group fixtures before defeating Ecuador 2-0 in the first knockout round. Those results mean Javier Aguirre’s side have already collected four victories, their highest total in a single World Cup.

Their record at the Azteca has been equally impressive. Mexico remains unbeaten there in World Cup matches, recording eight victories and two draws, while six consecutive wins have come at the venue. This will also be their 11th World Cup appearance at the stadium, the highest number of matches played by any nation at one ground in the competition’s history.

Across 89 competitive fixtures at the Azteca, Mexico has suffered only two defeats, against Costa Rica in 2001 and Honduras in 2013. They currently carry a 22-match unbeaten run in competitive games there, made up of 16 wins and six draws.

Defensive consistency has also defined Mexico’s tournament. Another clean sheet would make them only the second team to begin a World Cup with five successive shutouts after Italy achieved the feat in 1990 before eventually finishing third.

Previous meetings and players to watch

Julián Quiñones has emerged as one of Mexico’s standout performers, contributing directly to four goals through three strikes and one assist. That equals the best total by a Mexican player in a single World Cup since records began in 1966, matching Luis Hernández’s achievement from 1998. One more goal would also see Quiñones equal Hernández’s national record of four goals at a single tournament.

Roberto Alvarado has made a major creative contribution, providing three assists, the highest figure recorded by a Mexican player at a World Cup since 1966. He also leads his country’s statistics for chances created with 10, possession won with 15, and tackles with seven during this edition.

The upcoming contest represents only the second World Cup meeting between England and Mexico. Their previous encounter came in the group stage of the 1966 tournament, when England secured a 2-0 victory thanks to goals from Bobby Charlton and Roger Hunt before eventually lifting the trophy.

England have also won each of their last four meetings with Mexico, although all of those matches were friendlies played between 1986 and 2010. This will be only the fourth occasion England has faced a host nation at the World Cup, following matches against Switzerland in 1954, Spain in 1982, and Italy in 1990.

Prediction and expected outcome

England appear to hold a slight advantage heading into this last-16 tie thanks to their greater experience in the latter stages of recent World Cups and the attacking form of Harry Kane, who has already delivered crucial goals during the tournament. However, Mexico will draw enormous confidence from playing on home soil, where they boast an exceptional record at the Azteca and have yet to concede a goal at this World Cup. Javier Aguirre’s side have combined defensive resilience with attacking efficiency, making them one of the tournament’s most difficult teams to break down. England is likely to enjoy more possession, while Mexico will look to capitalise on the energy of the home crowd and the pace of players such as Julián Quiñones. The contest is expected to be closely fought, with fine margins and individual quality likely to determine the outcome.

Prediction: Mexico 1-2 England

Expected outcome: A narrow England victory after a highly competitive encounter, sending the Three Lions into the quarter-finals while ending Mexico’s impressive unbeaten run on home soil. England’s greater knockout experience could prove decisive, although Mexico have every chance of forcing extra time or producing an upset if they maintain their outstanding defensive form.

Match preview: Brazil vs Norway

Brazil and Norway will meet on Sunday for a place in the World Cup quarter-finals, with Carlo Ancelotti’s side looking to build on a dramatic victory over Japan in the previous round. The five-time world champions needed a late goal from Gabriel Martinelli to complete a 2-1 comeback after Casemiro had cancelled out Kaishu Sano’s opener in Houston.

Norway also required a late winner to progress, as Erling Haaland struck in the 86th minute to secure a 2-1 success over Ivory Coast. That result delivered the country’s first-ever victory in a World Cup knockout match and extended an already memorable tournament for Ståle Solbakken’s team.

Both nations now head into the last 16 after narrow wins, but the upcoming encounter in New Jersey presents a significantly tougher challenge, with a place among the final eight at stake.

Date: Sunday, July 5, 2026
Kick-off Time: 16:00 New York local time (UTC-4)
Venue: New York New Jersey Stadium, East Rutherford, New Jersey
Venue Capacity: 82,500
Opponents: Brazil vs. Norway (Round of 16)
Across four historical meetings (three friendlies and the 1998 World Cup), Brazil has failed to defeat Norway, posting two losses and two draws

Brazil searching for greater attacking rhythm

Although Brazil have reached the knockout stages, Ancelotti may still want to see more from his forwards. His team have attempted 60 shots across four matches, averaging 15.0 per game, making it their second-lowest figure at a single World Cup, ahead of only the 1998 campaign.

At the same time, Brazil’s opportunities have been of notably high quality. Their expected goals per shot stands at 0.16, the highest they have recorded during the period covered by these statistics, suggesting they are creating better chances despite taking fewer attempts.

Bruno Guimarães has been one of Brazil’s standout performers, providing the assist for Martinelli’s winner against Japan to move onto four assists at the tournament. Since 1966, only Pelé has managed more assists for Brazil in a single World Cup edition, recording six in 1970.

Victory over Norway would also give Brazil a fourth consecutive World Cup win, something they have not achieved since an 11-match winning sequence spanning the 2002 and 2006 tournaments. History also favours the South Americans in this round, as they have advanced from nine of their previous 10 last-16 matches, with only a 1-0 defeat to Argentina in 1990 preventing a perfect record.

Norway relying on Haaland’s remarkable form

Norway continue to impress thanks largely to Haaland, whose decisive goal against Ivory Coast extended his scoring streak to 13 straight competitive international appearances. During that run, the striker has found the net 25 times and now has the chance to become only the eighth European player to score in each of his first four World Cup matches.

If he scores again, Haaland would also become the first European footballer to achieve that feat since Christian Vieri did so for Italy in 1998. Norway’s attacking threat is further strengthened by Martin Ødegaard, who created Antonio Nusa’s goal in the previous round.

Ødegaard could make history by registering an assist in each of his first four World Cup appearances. He would also become only the third player on record to produce assists in four consecutive matches at the finals after Thomas Häßler in 1994 and Zico in 1982.

Despite their attacking success, Norway has defensive concerns. They have both scored and conceded in all four matches at this tournament, producing 10 goals while allowing eight. Solbakken will hope his team can be more solid against the pace and quality of Vinícius Júnior and Matheus Cunha.

Previous meetings and historical trends

Norway have enjoyed the better record in this fixture, remaining unbeaten across the four previous meetings with Brazil by winning twice and drawing twice. Their most memorable encounter came at the 1998 World Cup, where the Scandinavians claimed a 2-1 victory.

Brazil also faces an unwanted trend against European opposition in the knockout stages. Since defeating Germany in the 2002 World Cup final, they have been eliminated in each of their last six knockout matches against teams from Europe.

Those exits came against France in the 2006 quarter-finals, the Netherlands in the 2010 quarter-finals, Germany in the 2014 semi-finals, the Netherlands again in the 2014 third-place play-off, Belgium in the 2018 quarter-finals, and Croatia in the 2022 quarter-finals.

Norway’s run at this tournament has already rewritten parts of their history. Before 2026, they had played only two knockout matches at major tournaments, losing both to Italy in 1938 and 1998, while three of the country’s six victories at major tournaments have now come during this World Cup. Another notable statistic is that Norway have both scored and conceded in each of their first four matches, putting them on course to join a short list of nations to do so in their opening five games of a single World Cup edition.

Prediction and expected outcome

Brazil enter this last-16 encounter as slight favourites because of their greater World Cup pedigree and consistent record in knockout matches, but Norway have already shown they are capable of troubling elite opposition. Carlo Ancelotti’s side have not been at their attacking best, though the quality of the chances they are creating suggests they remain a major threat, while Bruno Guimarães’ creativity and Gabriel Martinelli’s confidence after his late winner could prove decisive. Norway, meanwhile, possess one of the tournament’s most dangerous forwards in Erling Haaland, whose remarkable international scoring streak gives them every chance of causing an upset, especially with Martin Ødegaard supplying opportunities. Brazil is likely to dominate possession, but Norway’s direct attacking approach and ability to score consistently should ensure a closely contested match. The key battle may be whether Brazil can finally convert their superiority into goals while limiting Haaland’s influence.

Prediction: Brazil 2-1 Norway

Expected outcome: A closely fought contest in which Brazil’s greater tournament experience and ability to create high-quality chances ultimately prove decisive, sending them into the quarter-finals. Norway is expected to threaten throughout, particularly through Haaland, and should make Brazil work for victory. While Brazil has the edge on balance, Norway’s attacking form means extra time or even an upset cannot be completely ruled out.
