Tuchel: This result is disappointing, the team plays better when they are behind

June 11th News Early this morning, England was reversed by Senegal 1-3 in a friendly match, and Tuchel was interviewed by the media after the game.

Tuchel said: "Yes, this result is certainly disappointing, and it's not sure if we should have had a better ending. The team seemed stiff and lacked energy for a long time. We did a good job in the first half, but the best stage was when we were behind 1-2. The first two goals were too easy to concede, and we had to strengthen our defense."

"The reaction behind was worthy of recognition, and the players suddenly became active, relaxed, smooth and more aggressive, and we had a great opportunity to equalize the score. "

Talking about Bellingham's canceled goal, Tuchel said: "I just watched the replay, which was more like a shoulder touch than a handball. This kind of penalty that needs to be reviewed. The referee's re-judgment after the first look back is either correcting the error or determining the goal is valid."

Speaking of sending Ivan Tony in the final stage, Tuchel said: "Tony is an expert in this situation. We have created many opportunities through the flexible running of Gibbs White, Eze, Rogers and Bellingham. When frequent crosses are needed, Tony is the strongest weapon, so we decided to send him on the court in 80 minutes."
