Tuchel '100 per Cent' Committed to England in Wake of World Cup Exit
Tuchel said England’s 12% possession after Anthony Gordon’s goal, not his system change, led to the late collapse.
- On Wednesday, England saw their World Cup dreams end in Atlanta, suffering a 2-1 semi-final defeat against Argentina after letting a 1-0 lead slip.
- Manager Thomas Tuchel's tactical shift to a back five following Anthony Gordon's 55th-minute goal failed to prevent Argentina from scoring two late goals to advance.
- Between Gordon's opener and Lautaro Martinez's 92nd-minute winner, England managed just 12 per cent possession, as Tuchel's defensive substitutions for Dan Burn and Ezri Konsa could not stem Argentina's pressure.
- Despite the defeat, Football Association chief executive Mark Bullingham publicly backed Tuchel, confirming the manager remains in charge through his contract extension for Euro 2028.
- Tuchel remains "100 per cent" committed to leading England, claiming he sees an "extra level" for glory that eluded his squad at the World Cup.
