(Photo by PATRICIA DE MELO MOREIRA \/ AFP)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cWhatever. Whatever,\u201d said the Real Madrid midfielder after a gruelling 120 minutes in the searing Miami heat.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s difficult out there. It\u2019s a tough shift. All the players are putting in a tough shift. So my thoughts and appreciation go to the players who put in a good shift out there.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>England will now face either Argentina or Switzerland in Atlanta on Wednesday as they attempt to reach the World Cup final for the first time in 60 years.<\/p>\n<p>Tuchel said later he had no doubt over his players\u2019 effort but was adamant that his team would need to improve to progress further in the competition.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m impressed with the shift that they put in, the effort, the belief and to overcome adversity and to dig in and find ways to win is on the absolutely highest level,\u201d the German coach said at the post-match press conference.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFull credit to the team, we found a way in the last four. This is of course the most important but the analysing head of me and the football coach still thinks that we can and have played better football.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>England were fortunate in two major refereeing decisions.<\/p>\n<p>Bellingham\u2019s first goal was allowed to stand despite Norwegian protests that the ball had struck the TV camera suspended above the pitch in the build-up.<\/p>\n<p>Norway also had a second goal disallowed in the second half after a VAR review for a foul by Erling Haaland before a corner had been taken.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe were lucky. I stand with that,\u201d added Tuchel.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo one ever denies that you need luck to go far in tournament football. You need moments where you\u2019re lucky, otherwise it\u2019s just not possible<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI see no harm in admitting it. It\u2019s just the way I felt.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Tuchel was more fulsome in his praise for Bellingham, who again rose to the ocassion to be a national hero.<\/p>\n<p>After scoring twice in England\u2019s memorable 3-2 win over Mexico in the Estadio Azteca in the last 16, Bellingham moved alongside Harry Kane on six goals in six games at this World Cup with his two goals in Miami.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWorld-class performance from a world-class player,\u201d said Tuchel. \u201cIn big, big moments, crucial moments, he was absolutely top class.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vanguardngr.com\/2026\/07\/tuchel-says-lucky-england-must-improve-despite-reaching-world-cup-semi-finals\/\">Tuchel says \u2018lucky\u2019 England must improve despite reaching World Cup semi-finals<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vanguardngr.com\/\">Vanguard News<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>, <\/p>\n<p>England manager Thomas Tuchel said his team were &#8220;lucky&#8221; to squeeze past Norway 2-1 after extra-time to reach the World Cup semi-finals, but praised &#8220;world-class&#8221; Jude Bellingham after his two goals dragged the Three Lions to victory.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vanguardngr.com\/2026\/07\/tuchel-says-lucky-england-must-improve-despite-reaching-world-cup-semi-finals\/\">Tuchel says \u2018lucky\u2019 England must improve despite reaching World Cup semi-finals<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vanguardngr.com\/\">Vanguard News<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>, <!-- no image -->, Emmanuel Okogba, {authorlink},, , Vanguard News, July 12, 2026, 2:55 am<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tuchel says \u2018lucky\u2019 England must improve despite reaching World Cup semi-finals, England manager Thomas Tuchel said his team were \u201clucky\u201d to squeeze past Norway 2-1 after extra-time to reach the World Cup semi-finals, but praised \u201cworld-class\u201d Jude Bellingham after his two goals dragged the Three Lions to victory.
