“CAN'T Keep Relying On KANE!” Simon Jordan & John Terry SLAM England Performance + Mexico Prediction
What was said
"My understanding is we cannot adapt to the altitude. It's a huge advantage Mexico have. There's not enough time. We knew that before. It's just a disadvantage with which we will have to deal."
Thomas Tuchel admitted England cannot adapt to the 7,200 feet altitude at Mexico City's Aztec Stadium for their World Cup quarterfinal. John Terry warned that players will feel exhausted and unable to match runs, noting even South African players who train at high altitude found Mexico's conditions extremely difficult. The Aztec has been a fortress for Mexico with only two competitive defeats in 56 years, though England are heavily favored on paper.
