England legend Michael Owen has launched a blistering attack on Thomas Tuchel, comparing his ultra-defensive tactics to those of a local pub team. Following the Three Lions' heartbreaking 2-1 World Cup semi-final exit to Argentina, the former striker labelled the defensive approach "rubbish" and the absolute opposite of brave.

Atlanta did not need the World Cup to manufacture a soccer culture. Eight matches and more than half a million fan-festival visitors only confirmed what the city had spent nearly 60 years building.

France defender Lucas Digne has opened up on the "immense disappointment" of Les Bleus' World Cup semi-final exit at the hands of Spain. The experienced left-back was at the centre of the game's turning point, conceding the penalty for a foul on Lamine Yamal that allowed La Roja to break the deadlock.

Former England international Andros Townsend has fiercely defended manager Thomas Tuchel following the Three Lions' agonising 2-1 World Cup semi-final collapse to Argentina. Townsend dismissed the widespread backlash over Tuchel's defensive changes, arguing the tactical adjustments were "smart" manoeuvres that were ultimately let down by the players on the pitch.
