England head coach Thomas Tuchel has outlined the team's injury updates and tactical plans ahead of their World Cup Round of 16 match against DR Congo. The match is scheduled for July 1 at 16:00 BST.
Declan Rice is expected to return to training, but Reece James remains doubtful with a hamstring injury. Tuchel is drawing up an emergency plan to ensure England can handle the defensive tactics of DR Congo.
'We need to be patient, keep our shape, and not start to doubt. It’s about finding the right moments to break through their defense,' Tuchel said, emphasizing the importance of mental resilience and tactical discipline.
