Thomas Tuchel rages at 'struggling' England star during DR Congo comeback
- England avoided World Cup elimination on Wednesday with a 2-1 comeback victory over DR Congo, as captain Harry Kane scored the 75th-minute equalizer and the 86th-minute winner to advance The Three Lions into the round of 16.
- Manager Thomas Tuchel berated Tottenham defender Djed Spence on the touchline during the 61st minute, expressing visible frustration with the full-back's performance throughout the match.
- Former England defender Micah Richards noted, "The right-back position is a conundrum," citing that Spence has played only 298 minutes at right-back and injuries to Tino Livramento, Jarell Quansah, and Reece James have forced Declan Rice to fill in.
- Kane's match-winning double proved vital as the squad prepares for Sunday's tie against co-hosts Mexico at Estadio Azteca, with midfielder Declan Rice describing the striker's impact as "inevitable."
- Tuchel told reporters that playing in Mexico City presents a "disadvantage" due to altitude and humidity, noting these environmental factors will provide a unique test for the team on Sunday.
