Tuchel regrets not eating Azteca turf after win over Mexico

England achieved a historic triumph against Mexico at the Azteca, inflicting merely the third competitive loss the hosts have suffered in 90 encounters at the venue. Thomas Tuchel cited the triumph as a pinnacle of their journey while praising the squad's immense unity, particularly after Jordan Henderson broke his arm tumbling over commercial signage during the post-match festivities.

The manager highlighted how every teammate instantly ceased rejoicing to surround, shelter, and comfort the injured midfielder, who was ruled out for the remainder of the competition as a result.

Looking ahead to a September 26 clash with World Cup champions Spain to kick off the 2026-27 Uefa Nations League, Tuchel also maintains focus on the 2028 European Championships. The German tactician feels fully connected to his roster and remains convinced they are making major progress toward securing England's first senior men's silverware since 1966.
