England head coach Thomas Tuchel expressed frustration with his team despite their victory over Norway, which secured a place in the 2026 World Cup semi-finals. The Three Lions emerged with a 3-1 win after extra time during Saturday’s match in Miami.
Norway initially took the lead through Andreas Schjelderup, but Jude Bellingham leveled the score just before halftime. Bellingham then found the net again during the additional period to set up an upcoming showdown with Argentina.
Speaking to ITV, Tuchel criticized his squad for a sluggish performance characterized by frequent errors. While acknowledging the importance of reaching the final four, he emphasized that the team struggled unnecessarily and lacked the required pace. The manager concluded that England was fortunate to walk away with the win.
