One of Thomas Tuchel’s first acts as England head coach was to bring Marcus Rashford in from the cold after a year in the international wilderness.
Rashford had not been selected for England since March 2024 when Tuchel named him in his first squad in March this year. He played more than 70 minutes in both of Tuchel’s first two matches in charge, against Albania and Tuesday’s opponents Latvia, and the rest, as they say, is history.
