Thomas Tuchel’s reign as England manager began with victory as the Three Lions got their 2026 World Cup qualifying campaign up and running with a 2-0 win over Albania in front of more than 82,000 fans at Wembley.
Tuchel handed debuts to Dan Burn and Myles Lewis-Skelly in his starting line-up, and the 18-year-old Arsenal defender opened the scoring by prodding through goalkeeper Thomas Strakosha’s legs from a Jude Bellingham pass.
