Thomas Tuchel compared Harry Kane to a shark and said he was proud of England after they set up a last-16 tie against Mexico by fighting back from the brink against the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) on Wednesday.
Tuchel, who was staring at an early exit after Brian Cipenga opened the scoring in the seventh minute, was delighted with his side’s refusal to give in against the DRC. England’s revival meant they won a World Cup game after conceding first for the first time since the 1966 final against West Germany.
