Only 1 goal was scored in 20 shots, and after England defeated the European bottom, head coach Tuchel was very dissatisfied

Football

In the early morning of June 8, England defeated Andorra 1-0 away, continuing to rank first in Group K of the European World Cup qualifiers.

This is the third consecutive win of Tiger's win since coaching the "Three Lions", and it also continues their seven-game winning streak against this small country team from the Pyrenees in the official game. However, facing the 173rd-ranked opponent in the world, England scored only one goal in the whole game, and its overall performance lacked vitality, which made German coach Tuchel very dissatisfied.

Tuchel did not hide his anger: "Frankly, I'm very unhappy with the players' performance. We played very loosely in the last 20 minutes, and I hate this attitude. This is a World Cup qualifier, not a friendly match." He was the head coach of Chelsea.

captain Harry Kane also admitted: "We have to play better. We didn't do well in possession, which gave Andorra more confidence. In any case, we still achieved our goal and scored three points."

20 shots in the game, scoring only 1 goal

From the beginning of the game, England showed a strong offensive intention. Bellingham's long shot first tested the opponent's goalkeeper Ikel Alvarez. Subsequently, Noni Maduaike and Harry Kane also got good opportunities to score, but they were both resolved or missed by Alvarez.

Andorra's closest chance to score in the whole game was Viel Bora's shot in a set piece, but unfortunately it was above the crossbar. Although England has fully controlled the situation, it has never been able to break the deadlock. The two sides fought 0-0 in the first half.

It was not until the 50th minute that the deadlock on the court was broken. Maduaike made an assist, Kane received the shot and was saved by the goalkeeper and scored, completing his 72nd goal in his national team's career. The two have created threats many times since then, but due to the Andorra goalkeeper's outstanding performance and the poor efficiency of the English strikers, the score was finally frozen at 1-0.

In addition to Tuchel, Manchester United legend Roy Keane also noticed the lack of efforts of England at the end of the game. He accused the players of looking "listened".

He said: "We always try to make excuses for England, after all, this is the end of the season, and the players have indeed experienced a difficult time."

"I think the first half is OK, but I feel that when they scored, it seems that the task has been completed."

"I am very disappointed with the attitude of the game after the goal, and the head coach will definitely not be satisfied with the performance in the last half hour. I know the result has been achieved, but we should have expected it higher."

Keane continued: "Overall, especially in the second half, the team's attitude was not positive enough."

He continued: "Make me worried." The thing is, when I see the players seem bored, I feel that some players are losing interest in the last half hour of the game, which makes me dislike it. "

"You are facing Andorra, and you should pursue the victory and fight for more goals. These players must impress the head coach. After all, he has just taken office, and you have to prove it with your own attitude and strive for more goals."

"Especially other offensive players, you can't always count on Kane. Kane has been our core figure for many years, but other attackers also need to stand up and say, 'I want to make a difference here.'"
