England exit the World Cup at the cruelest moment, in the semi-finals, with the final truly just a step away. Then Messi did Messi things and in just over five minutes he turned everything around.
Needless to say, back home the Three Lions' elimination has not been taken lightly, especially because of the way it happened. From Gordon’s goal in the 55th minute onward, the English practically handed themselves over to Argentina. The possession stats from the 55th minute on speak for themselves: 88% for La Albiceleste, just 12% for Tuchel’s team. And it is precisely the German coach who has come under fire for the decision to sit back and “hope” to hold on.
From the Independent to the BBC, many are asking whether it is all Tuchel’s fault and down to his tactics.



Others, meanwhile, chose to highlight the political Falklands banner that appeared on the pitch during the celebrations. A “classless” gesture and sheer “Argentine arrogance,” as it has been described.
