Englands Ersatzregeln für die Weltmeisterschaft nach Tino Livramentos Verletzung

England can make a change to their 26-man tournament roster for injury or serious illness reasons prior to the tournament's official start. This gives Thomas Tuchel a critical window of time to adjust his plans following the injury to Newcastle defender Tino Livramento. The absolute final deadline to officially name a replacement player is up to 24 hours before England's opening group match against Croatia. If an outfield player is injured after this exact point, a replacement cannot be called up and the Three Lions would be forced to play the tournament with just 25 players.
