'Lost his Tuch?' - England boss hammered by media after World Cup exit

England lost 2-1 to Argentina in the 2026 World Cup semi-final after taking a 1-0 lead through Anthony Gordon's goal. German head coach Thomas Tuchel was heavily criticized by British media for his defensive substitutions, bringing on Dan Burn and Ezri Konsa to form a five-man defense. The Sun blared 'Lost his Tuch?' and the Daily Mail accused Tuchel of repeating the same negative tactics that got Gareth Southgate criticized. The Times columnist Martin Samuel said Tuchel had failed to cure England's fear of holding a lead.
