Tuchel: We Deserved to Score, and I Have No Idea About This Matter
The coach of the English national team, Thomas Tuchel, appeared in a press conference following the 0-0 draw against the Ghanaian national team in the second round of the group stage of the 2026 World Cup.
The coach commented on Harry Kane's opportunity in the final minutes of the match: "It's usually a clear goal-scoring chance for us. It was a big opportunity, followed by another one. We deserved to score."
He added, "We knew it would be a tough match. They played more defensively than in the first game, adopting a 4-5-1 formation. We regained our strength as the first half progressed, but we couldn't secure the win."
He added, "We were excellent at countering the counterattacks for most of the match. We need to pay great attention to this aspect. The substitutes were fantastic."
Regarding changing the team's plans against Panama in the final round: "I have no idea. The match will take place in four days."
