Thomas Tuchel has dismissed suggestions England were handed a World Cup wake-up call after being held to a goalless draw against Ghana and called on supporters not to lose belief in his side.
The substitute Nico O’Reilly came closest to breaking the deadlock four minutes before the end of normal time when his header struck the crossbar, with Harry Kane blazing the follow-up over. But Ghana were full value for a point and might have won if the Honduran referee, Said Martínez, had ruled against Ezri Konsa after he appeared to bring down the substitute Prince Kwabena Adu inside the England penalty area during the second half.
