England manager Thomas Tuchel granted his players an offsite family day on Tuesday to recharge after their euphoric 3-2 win over Mexico. The team was allowed to leave their hotel in Prairie Village, near Kansas City, with many spending time with loved ones and having dinner with partners before returning to camp for Wednesday's training session as they prepare for their World Cup quarter-final against Norway on Saturday. Tuchel has given his players two days off since the win in Mexico City, which many have described as England's best World Cup performance since the 1966 final. There have been concerns about the mental and physical toll of the game, which was played at high altitude at the Azteca Stadium. Sources indicated the final training session before the Mexico game was mainly a walkthrough to conserve energy, and Tuchel is hopeful the time away from camp will ease the strain on his squad ahead of the clash in Miami.
