🔗 Share this article Tuchel Expresses Disappointment Over Home Crowd Support Following Emphatic Wales Victory. The England head coach shared his regret that the Three Lions team did not get more encouragement from the home crowd during their impressive triumph over Wales on Thursday night. Tuchel was satisfied to see his team continue their good form, with finishes from Morgan Rogers, Watkins, and Saka inside the initial stages effectively ending the contest. Yet, he was not content with the atmosphere at the iconic venue. “We had limited training days to prepare against a organized team and we did very well,” the coach stated. “We could have been 5-0 up at half-time. We missed the additional ones. The stadium was silent. We didn’t get any energy from the stands. Our team gave their all to win.” “How much more can you give in 20 minutes? We didn’t let them get away. If you hear just Wales fans for 30 minutes, it’s disappointing because the squad warranted greater backing today.” “I stand by my words. We cannot do more than being three goals up in a derby. I hoped for a bit more backing in phases where it is challenging.” “In the second half, to support us, there was a bit too much support for Wales. It might have aided us to recharge, but that’s the way it went and that is it.” Selection Choices Vindicated by Display Away from potentially starting a fight with supporters, the manager also created controversy by excluding Bellingham and Phil Foden from his team selection. Yet the choice was validated by Morgan Rogers impressing again in the attacking midfield role and scoring his first international goal. “He plays his game,” the head coach noted. “He operates as an attacking midfielder and he is competing for his position.” Wales Manager Seeks Lessons from Defeat The Wales manager expressed hope that his team, who host Belgium in a key World Cup qualifier on next week, take lessons from their disappointing performance in the opening period. “That’s the reason I wanted this game,” Bellamy commented. “I wanted to assess our current level. Where do we want to go? Who do we want to be? Today gives me inspiration.” Injury Concern for Watkins Ollie Watkins was taken off at the break after clattering into a post and will be a doubt when the national team play Latvia in Riga in a qualifier on next week.
