Two Texas residents were charged with one felony count each of receiving stolen property after items belonging to England's World Cup team were stolen on June 14. The theft was discovered by England's national team staff during their stay in the United States for the World Cup campaign.

The specific items stolen and their total value were not disclosed in the charging documents. England's World Cup squad is based in the USA for their Group H campaign.

Off-field logistical disruptions during early tournament stages create minor operational friction but do not directly impact on-field performance or availability of players for matches.
