Sports reporter Archie Corbett sits down with England legend Joe Hart to discuss his experiences of playing on football's biggest stage and assess how Thomas Tuchel's England side could fare at the 2026 FIFA World Cup in North America. The former England goalkeeper reflects on the unique pressures and excitement of representing his country at a World Cup, while also sharing his thoughts on the modern game, the importance of elite goalkeepers and where he believes Jordan Pickford ranks among the world's best. A Premier League champion and one of England's most recognisable goalkeepers of the modern era, Hart provides a fascinating insight into life at the top level and what it takes to prepare for major international tournaments.
