England Draw a Blank as Tuchel's Lineup Gamble Fails to Click
England could not find a winner against Ghana in Boston, drawing 0-0 in a result that left fans frustrated and qualification hopes in the balance.
England and Ghana played out a goalless draw in Boston on Tuesday, with Thomas Tuchel's lineup decisions coming under immediate scrutiny from supporters, according to Reuters. The result means England have still not confirmed their place in the knockout rounds and must now focus on their final group game.
The draw comes after Sky Sports reported that Tuchel had been leaving his team selection later than ever, not informing players of their starting spots until just hours before kick-off in the opener against Croatia. That approach, designed to keep players on edge and focused, has not yet produced the attacking spark England were hoping for.
England fans were swift to express their disappointment, calling the performance 'awful' according to Reuters. Group L is tightening, with Croatia and Ghana both in the mix, and Tuchel will need a response in the final group match.
