As a result, Lionel Messi and co will take on Spain in the final later today, while England finished third after winning the bronze final."It was a terrible performance in the second half, and I think they went out with a whimper rather than on their shield," Murphy said on BBC Sport before England beat a disinterested France."I think he will keep his job, but I don't think he should.

He's failed, and he's failed in the same way we've failed before."It's the biggest tournament in the world, and I think he probably will get the belt on for his part. Tuchel was meant to be the man to change that.Thomas Tuchel looks on prior to the FIFA World Cup 2026 Semi Final match between England and Argentina.

But he insisted afterward that he was proud of his side's work this summer."This game will help us for sure — even if you can never fully celebrate a bronze medal," Tuchel said. "It’s the first [World Cup] medal for 60 years, first at a World Cup on foreign soil, and I hope the players can be proud of that at some point."We set ourselves the highest dream to chase, and we were very, very ambitious with our dream to make the final in the World Cup.
