Live updates as England host Uruguay in a friendly at Wembley.

Tuchel reaction

Thomas Tuchel understandably unhappy with the refereeing tonight, but was pleased with his team’s performance.

On who advanced their cause: “They all did. I have to review it but I liked how we played.”

On some booing for Ben White when he came on, Tuchel said: “I think it happened to some players before which is disappointing because it helps no one. It was a mixed reaction.”

Maguire very critical of referee

Harry Maguire says the decision to award Uruguay a late penalty was “ridiculous”.

“Ben just goes to block the shot. It’s not a tackle, it’s not malicious. It’s part and parcel of defending.”

He also criticised the decision not to send Uruguay’s Ronald Araujo for a nasty challenge on Phil Foden.

“It’s a couple of months to the World Cup and we’ve got referees allowing tackles like that.”
