In the FIFA World Cup European Qualifier, the England national team defeated Serbia 5-0 away.
Thomas Tuchel has claimed victory in all of his first 5 official matches as England manager, making him the 4th manager in the team’s history to achieve this feat. Up to this point, England has posted a record of 5 wins and 1 loss in 6 matches under Tuchel’s guidance; the only defeat came in a friendly match last June, when they lost 1-3 to Senegal.
Tuchel joins three predecessors as the fourth England manager to win their first 5 official games in charge. The previous three are Fabio Capello (who won his first 8 official matches), Ron Greenwood (first 6 official matches), and Sven-Göran Eriksson (first 5 official matches).
