WATCH | Donald Trump the latest to take a swipe at Thomas Tuchel over England's tactics

Donald Trump has criticized England's tactical approach during their 2022 FIFA World Cup semi-final loss to Argentina, specifically targeting head coach Thomas Tuchel's decision to shift to a more defensive strategy after England took an early lead. During an event in New York with FIFA President Gianni Infantino, Trump commented on England captain Harry Kane being moved to a defensive role, suggesting this may have contributed to the team's defeat. Tuchel defended his choices, stating he believed the team had become too passive and aimed to regain control. The move allowed Lionel Messi to exploit spaces and score twice, securing Argentina's place in the final.
