Thomas Tuchel celebrated a successful debut as a coach of the English national team. England won 2-0 (1-0) in the World Cup qualification game against Albania. The 18-year-old debutant Myles Lewis-Skelly (20th minute) from Arsenal and Bayern star Harry Kane (77th) shot the Three Lions in the Wembley Stadium in London.
Before the kick -off, the fans received the German coach with a large banner with the inscription “Welcome to the home of football, Thomas”. The 51-year-old had announced that he wanted to play football with his team. However, the 82,378 in Wembley initially did not see it.
England controlled the game right from the start, but rarely came to compelling opportunities against extremely defensive. Lewis-Skelly, in addition to Newcastles Dan Burn, took the first good opportunity, one of two international debut debutants in the starting eleven, according to Real Madrid’s Jude Bellingham. Albania had nothing to offer offensive. England’s team captain Kane made the preliminary decision after a cross from Declan Rice.
