England Coach Has an Unusual Request: Let the Kids Stay Up for the World Cup

As suggested by England manager Thomas Tuchel, sometimes there are more important things than taking rest.

Since the World Cup occurs once every four years, he thinks it’s wise to allow children to stay up a little later in order to watch their team play. This idea struck the heart of many fans.

Instead of merely concentrating on tactics or an upcoming knockout match, Tuchel made a humorous request directed to parents asking them to offer something special to the little football fans who wanted to watch the next match of England in World Cup.

Tuchel has a funny solution to this dilemma. As Tuchel stated, it would be good for parents to give their children a letter of absence from school and let them go to bed late this day. There will always be lessons to learn in the future and there won’t be another World Cup for four years.

That clash in Round of 16 between England and Mexico is going to take place at a time when children in England would normally be asleep since the hosting country is North America. The kick-off time of the match is not going to be very useful for them.

However, Tuchel feels that it is still going to be worthwhile.

Tuchel believes that international tournaments create memories that last for a long time. Watching your teams in an international tournament is an unforgettable experience.

England secured its qualification to the knockout stage of the tournament after its victory over the Democratic Republic of Congo.

The match helped the Three Lions stay in the competition and set up an exciting encounter with Mexico at the famed Estadio Azteca.

He has let one match slip out of his finger.

According to Tuchel, he watched a part of the first half of Mexico’s match against Ecuador before it was suspended due to the terrible weather in Mexico City. He decided not to stay any longer and fix up to continue this event again later that night.

He did not lose the opportunity to learn as much as possible about the future rival.

Tuchel mentioned Mexico in a positive sense as he was so impressed by the occurred defensive play. The coach admits it would be a tough time for his country in the course of the knockout stage of the competition.

When he said children should not stay up long it was not meant as the serious piece of advice/ it’s a real expression of strong emotions caused by events in sports competing.

Those nights were something more than football; they were about emotions, national pride, and the understanding that something huge was happening in front of the screen.

Tuchel wants young people in England now to relive similar memories.

As he thinks, support and presence of children is something special about every tournament, as their energy creates an exceptional atmosphere.

Because doing homework is not as important as the World Cup being only held every four years.
