England struggles with tactics as Tuchel searches for solutions

As England prepares to face DR Congo in Atlanta on Wednesday, coach Thomas Tuchel is still looking for effective tactics on the flanks after three group stage matches. Despite topping their group, inconsistent performances in the absence of injured players like Reece James and Bukayo Saka have raised concerns over team stability and defensive vulnerabilities. Key players such as Jude Bellingham and Harry Kane have shown promise, but greater defensive cohesion is required moving forward. England's challenge will be to create a more consistent attacking threat while addressing backline issues as the knockout stage approaches.
