Historical Context

England’s 1966 World Cup triumph under Alf Ramsey, witnessed by 98,000 at Wembley, set a legacy of high-profile success. After reaching the Euro 2024 final and securing a historic third-place finish at the 2026 World Cup (a 6-4 win over France), Thomas Tuchel, appointed in 2025, now aims to deliver the nation’s first major trophy since 1966 at Euro 2028.
