England goalkeeper Jordan Pickford is confident his team will keep their cool in the heat of Wednesday's World Cup semi-final against Argentina.
The rivalry between the two teams is one of the spiciest in world football, influenced by events on and off the pitch.
Pickford said England had largely avoided flashpoints during the 2026 tournament and can cope with the pressure.
"I think you've seen throughout the tournament our desire to win tackles. We've not got into any scuffles or anything," he said Monday at England's training base in Kansas City.
"We've been very well respected within the game. Decisions go our way, they don't go our way, we just reset, we go again and we let the football do the talking.
