Harri Keyn supported Tomas Tuxelning's criticisms of the term
England national team captain Harry Kane supported the sharp criticism from head coach Thomas Tuchel after the victory over Norway in the World Cup quarter-finals, as reported by Zamin.uz.
Although the English criticized the path to the semi-finals, the German specialist openly stated that he was not at all satisfied with the team's performance in Miami, according to Goal.com.
Despite winning 2-1 thanks to two goals from Jude Bellingham, Tuchel called the team lucky and emphasized that the players' technical awareness and speed were lacking. Harry Kane's coach explained this approach by the team's desire to fully transfer training skills to official matches.
He noted that Harry Kane's demands are justified. In his view, Tuchel sees how high a level the players reach in training and demands the same quality in matches.
He knows how we attack, he knows our one-on-one skills, and he wants us to show that strength, said the Bayern striker. The England national team has reached the semi-finals of a major tournament for the fourth time in its history.
However, both within the team and among experts, the opinion prevails that England has still not delivered a performance of full control for ninety minutes. Kane admitted that during the tournament in North America, the team showed its true strength only in certain situations.
According to the captain, the team has not yet reached its best level. Against Norway, only short spells of good play were shown.
The players still lack the full control they desire, but stepping onto the field in the semi-final against one of the world's strongest teams, Argentina, demands even greater responsibility. Interestingly, the coach's criticism was not well received by another team star, Jude Bellingham.
The Real Madrid midfielder pointed out that playing in Miami's harsh weather conditions and against stars like Erling Haaland and Martin Ødegaard is not easy. Nevertheless, he confirmed that the atmosphere in the Kane team is stable and that all attention is focused on the next stage.
Currently, two England national team strikers are among the tournament's top scorers. Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappé have each scored eight goals, while Erling Haaland has seven.
Harry Kane and Jude Bellingham have each scored six goals. In the end, Harry Kane positively evaluated his team's disciplined defensive play and the responsibility shown by players like Jude Bellingham in difficult situations.
The England national team will now face Argentina on the path to the final, and this match is expected to be a real test for Tuchel's players.
