Lewis Hall sits out as England loses to Spain at Wembley

Summary

Lewis Hall did not play in England's 3-2 defeat to Spain at Wembley on September 26 after recovering from injury. Hall, who had recently returned to training, was left on the bench by manager Thomas Tuchel for precautionary reasons. England initially took a 2-1 lead with goals from Anthony Gordon and Harry Kane after an early deficit but conceded two second-half goals, with Mikel Oyarzabal scoring the decisive goal. The defeat underscores the importance of Hall's fitness as he looks to contribute in upcoming Nations League fixtures against Czechia and Croatia.
