Senegal stun England to put Tuchel under pressure
Cape Argus
|June 12, 2025
ENGLAND slumped to a 3-1 home friendly defeat by Senegal on Tuesday to ramp up the scrutiny on boss Thomas Tuchel one year out from the World Cup.
-
Goals from Ismaila Sarr, Habib Diarra and Cheikh Sabaly inflicted England's first ever defeat against African opposition at Nottingham Forest's City Ground after Harry Kane had given the hosts an early lead.
Tuchel was scathing in his criticism of his side's dreary display in beating minnows Andorra just 1-0 in World Cup qualifying on Saturday.
The German, who was appointed with the task of ending England's wait since 1966 for a major tournament win, suffered his first defeat in four games in charge.
"We need to see the players under these kinds of conditions against one of the top 20 teams in the world to be smarter," said Tuchel.
"We don't go next week to the World Cup. We go in one year."
