FIFA listens to Tuchelin, changes procedure before the match starts

The “Three Lions” ideally launched their World Cup campaign on Wednesday, as Harry Kane (2) goals, Jude Bellingham and Marcus Rasford secured a 4-2 victory over Croatia.

As a result, Tucheli became the first foreign coach to win his first match as England's selective in a grand tour.

It was an unforgettable afternoon for Tucél, although his first experience as a World Cup coach was <x0... a little bit reverberated” before the match began.

As the English players gathered around the central circuit to sing the national anthem, photographers blocked the view of Tuchel and gave him no opportunity to see any of his football players.

The images later showed an irritated Tuchel talking to photographers.

You're very close, guys, very close,” he said at the “stadium. AT&T” in Texas.

“You're so close I can't see anything”, he added.

Speaking at the press conference after the match, the German complained about the incident.

I have to tell you something: FIFA changed the position of photographers during the national anthem, because I couldn't see my team during the anthem,” Tucheli said.

I've been waiting for this moment. It was a very, very special moment today and I stood in front of a wall of 50 photographers, only half a meter away, and I couldn't see a single player”, he went on.

This slightly ruined my experience,” he added.

It's very exciting. When I was young and I started training, it was too big to dream of such a case”, Tucheli said.

After Tuchel's complaint, FIFA has now updated its instructions, giving national trainers the chance to stay on the left or right of photographers during the pre-game ceremony.

Meanwhile, Declan Rice was replaced in the 72nd minute of England's match against Croatia. As he headed toward the bank, he was seen limping, which raised concerns about his physical condition.

Later, Tucheli gave an update for the midfielder of Arsenal.

“Declan suffered some unusual ball losses and noticed a concern in him,” he told “ITV”

Then I asked him and he immediately showed me the lower back and the upper thigh of the back, where the discomfort felt. I didn't mean to take any risks. If I get Declan out of the game, which I never want to do, it was time to protect him. I think Reece James did very well to replace it in the middle. He had a great fight. This is all”, the German said.

“I hope nothing is more serious. Declan finally assured me, saying: I'm fine, I'm fine. I know that kind of concern. We'll take care of it and it's not a big deal to worry about”, Tucheli added.

Rice himself declared after the match that he was “in perfect state”, although he acknowledged that he had been playing with this physical problem for some time./GazetaExpress/
