Patrick Vieira backs Noni Madueke for England's Ghana match on Tuesday

Patrick Vieira has defended Arsenal winger Noni Madueke ahead of England's upcoming match against Ghana on June 23. Vieira believes Madueke's style fits Thomas Tuchel's tactical requirements, especially with Bukayo Saka's fitness being carefully managed. Madueke impressed in England's 4-2 victory over Croatia, contributing to the team's performance with a penalty won and pace on the wing. With England aiming for a spot in the knockout stages, Madueke is expected to retain his starting place, helping maintain the team's attacking dynamics. Tuchel may continue to ease Saka back into the lineup by using him as a substitute again.
