England's netball team secured a record-breaking 94-32 victory over Tonga at the 2026 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, in a must-win Pool A fixture as they battle for a semi-final spot. The scale of the win matters because goal average and goal difference could prove decisive in a tight three-way tie for the top two positions in the pool, and England's dominant performance has strengthened their standing ahead of a crucial final group game.

England raced to a 27-8 lead by the end of the first quarter and never let up, surpassing their previous Commonwealth Games record of 89 goals set against Sri Lanka in 2002. Goal shooter Eleanor Cardwell led the way with 54 goals from 60 attempts, while Sasha Glasgow, Ella Clark and Olivia Tchine added further scores. The result leaves England third in Pool A but level on points with South Africa and defending champions Australia, setting up a decisive clash with South Africa on Thursday at 21:00 BST, while Tonga's tournament debut ends in elimination.
