The Three Lions eased to a 3-0 victory over their British foes in Thursday's (09.10.25) friendly but the coach was disappointed by the lack of excitement from those in attendance at the game.

Tuchel told ITV post-match: "We had one-and-a-half training days to prepare against a well-trained team and we did very, very well.

"We had an excellent first half, we were 3-0 up very quickly but it could have been four or five. It was very, very good. Then we couldn’t score the fourth one or the fifth one and the stadium was silent.

"Silent! We never got any energy back from the fans and I think the players delivered a lot to get more from the fans.

"It was difficult to keep everything going in the second half but we did excellent and deserved to win. A step in the right direction."

Tuchel believes that England fans should have been more appreciative of the team racing into a 3-0 lead in the first 20 minutes.

The German coach said: "What more can you give in 20 minutes? Three goals, the way we attacked Wales and didn’t let them escape.

"Even in their own half, ball win after ball win after ball win. If you then hear for half an hour, just Wales fans, yes it’s a bit sad because I think the team deserved big support today."

Tuchel later added in his post-match press conference: "I love English football and I love English football fans and the support they give, but I think the atmosphere did not match the performance on the field.

"We had excellent support in Serbia, but [here] we were 3-0 up after 20 minutes, we had ball win after ball win after ball win and I felt like why is the roof still on the stadium? That's just it, it's nothing big.

"We will do everything again to be infectious, there's no problem. I'm sure we will get everyone going - it is on us. But tonight I was a little underwhelmed."
