Tuchel talks about England's first World Cup medal in 60 years.

In the recently concluded World Cup third-place match, England defeated France 6-4 in a high-scoring affair to win the bronze medal.

After the match, England manager Thomas Tuchel summarized and reflected on the team's overall performance in the tournament. Despite winning England's first overseas World Cup medal in 60 years, Tuchel remained clear-headed and meticulous in the interview.

Tuchel admitted: "This victory will definitely help the team's future development, even if we can never fully celebrate a bronze medal. But it is a breakthrough after decades, and I hope the players will be proud of today's achievement at some point in the future."

Furthermore, Tuchel revealed that the blow of missing the final put the entire team under immense psychological pressure before the match. To adjust their mindset, veteran Jordan Henderson gave a pre-match speech in the locker room, helping the players understand the significance of this third-place match and successfully focusing the team's attention.

Speaking to the media, Tuchel directly pointed out the team's current tactical and technical problems. He stated that although the coaching staff and players have established a very good working relationship over the past seven weeks, England must learn to play higher-quality football if they want to truly close the gap with the world's top teams.

"We need to learn to better control the game under pressure, make more informed tactical decisions, and be more efficient on the defensive end," Tuchel emphasized.
