England secured their place in the semi-finals of the 2026 Wheelchair Rugby League World Cup with a dominant 134-0 victory over the United States at Wollongong Entertainment Arena.

Captain Mason Billington rated the team's performance as "at least a seven out of 10" after they scored 23 tries, with eight different players crossing the line. Billington, Chris Haynes, and Luis Domingos each scored four tries, while Finlay O'Neill was named player of the match with 38 points from two tries and 15 conversions.

England will face either France or Australia in the semi-finals next week. In Pool A, Ireland also qualified with a 68-28 win over Wales and will meet England in their final group game on Friday. France and Australia both recorded triple-figure wins to advance from the other pool.
