It had great personal significance for me that Thomas Tuchel was a very happy man after England under-21s’ recent 5-nil thrashing of Serbia. The match at Wembley Stadium was a glimpse of England’s incredible attacking talent. It ensured that they were known internationally as a truly dangerous squad.
After the game, Tuchel offered high praise to his players for their historic showing. He noted that every aspect of their game contributed to a resounding win, highlighting the teamwork and determination exhibited on the pitch. This is precisely the kind of performance and result we needed and that will give everyone confidence in such a clear and decisive win, said Tuchel.
The game started with England clearly asserting control from the opening minutes. Their high pressure strategy proved effective and they netted three goals in the opening half. This made it feel like it was going to be their night. Tuchel praised his players for keeping their concentration and composure during a flirtation with his nightmare scenario that turned into a handsome win.
In addition to praising his players, Tuchel acknowledged the significance of this win in the broader context of England’s campaign. He stressed that having the performance as an introduction is testament to their potential and ambition. This motivates them as they prepare to meet the next challenges ahead. “A perfect result like this reinforces our belief and sets us up well moving forward,” he added.
Looking ahead, Tuchel was focused on the hard work and commitment that will be required from his squad to stay on top. He knows that this win truly is a big deal. For him, it’s less about that success and more about the next step to even better things. The new manager is ambitious to capitalize on this momentum. As England prepares to advance further in future competitions, he’ll be the one making sure they’re still hungry and prepared to compete for the world’s biggest of prizes.
