Megan Pickford, wife of England goalkeeper Jordan Pickford, believes she has received a sign that England will win the 2026 World Cup after opening a fortune cookie while sightseeing in New York. The message inside read: 'A golden opportunity is on the horizon.' She shared a photo of the slip on her Instagram story, captioning it with a pair of eyes emoji and a trophy.
Megan's World Cup Journey
Megan, a Washington-born mother of three, has been a prominent figure among the England WAGs during the tournament. She has attended matches in the United States, including England's 2-0 victory over Panama on Saturday night, which secured top spot in Group L. Even when her luggage went missing before the Croatia game, she improvised with a cowboy-inspired outfit.
England's Path Ahead
England, managed by Thomas Tuchel, will face DR Congo in Atlanta on Wednesday evening, aiming to advance to the last 16. If successful, they will play Mexico, who qualified after a 2-0 win over Ecuador. England's performances have been mixed, with the second half against Croatia being their most impressive spell.
Fans will hope the fortune cookie's prediction holds true as the Three Lions pursue World Cup glory.
