There are no words needed. Iconic words, emblematic games, we overcame adversity. I&#8217;m very proud.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">&#8220;It didn&#8217;t feel hostile. It didn&#8217;t feel hostile, it felt supportive and emotional. You were close to the bench and the national anthem was incredible. We just refused to give in at a level that was absolutely admirable.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">&#8220;It&#8217;s just not good enough. We don&#8217;t have enough referees, we don&#8217;t have enough fourth officials. That&#8217;s the bottom line. Did I get it right? A game like this, with three people from South America on VAR? I could be wrong, but if this is right&#8230; VAR is against penalties. Overturning an obvious mistake is a no-no. VAR is involved. He didn&#8217;t overturn the yellow for a red, he didn&#8217;t even give a foul, but then he overturned the call saying he didn&#8217;t do it. Not enough referees and not enough fourth officials.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">&#8220;Great, absolutely great, everyone. The people on the bench, great again. It&#8217;s not worth mentioning individual names, everyone was exhausted. Everyone won a crazy football game in a crazy atmosphere. We fought against all odds and even during the game, at the end in the 11th minute he gave us two corner kicks and made it 12th minute&#8230; No, everything was against us and we did not give in.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">&#8220;I think we can play better and we can perform better. There&#8217;s still a gap in what I see in terms of what we put on the pitch, the position of the ball, the space, but there&#8217;s no gap in doing everything we can to do the things that are thrown at this team. It&#8217;s a team that everyone can be proud of.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">&#8220;Not good, not good. Next up is a red card for the right defender. Jordan fell and injured his wrist, and it looks really bad.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mirror.co.uk\/sport\/football\/news\/mexico-vs-england-live-updates-37384173\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Manager Thomas Tuchel told BBC Sport: &#8220;If a team has heart and belief, this team did it with sheer will.
