England head coach Thomas Tuchel spoke about his team's defeat in the friendly match against Japan.
Idman.Biz reports that the match held in England ended with a 1-0 victory for the Japanese.
"Of course, this is unpleasant. Defeat is always disappointing, especially at home. I don't think we were punished for anything significant, but for a counter-attack in the first half. But we need such matches. They are a difficult opponent; we couldn't rely on a number of players, so we had to try a new tactic again. We experimented with this and we need to work on our mistakes," - "englandfootball" quotes Tuchel.
At the 2026 World Cup, England will play Croatia, Ghana and Panama in Group L.
