Thomas Tuchel has made an emotional admission after England produced a stunning 3-2 win against Mexico.
Goals from Jude Bellingham and Harry Kane, along with a heroic defensive performance, helped the Three Lions advance to the quarter-finals, where they will face Norway.
Following the contest, Tuchel gave an update on Jordan Henderson, who injured his wrist after falling off the advertising board.
The England boss emotionally shared that it "doesn't fit the evening that Jordan is not with us" for the post-match celebrations.
Tuchel said: "It's a very special night for us. Mixed feelings because I am exhausted and emotional, but also sad because Jordan got injured; he injured his wrist and is at the hospital at the moment.
"It's a quite serious injury, and it doesn't fit the evening that Jordan is now not with us. I don't know the procedure; I just did the press, and the doctor told me he is in the hospital."
Regarding the performance, the German hailed his side for their incredible effort to get it over the line at the Azteca Stadium.
"What drama from the first minute. What a crazy game. What an emotional roller-coaster.

"What a national anthem from the Mexican people. I am so proud I was part of it.
"It was a fight for a long time with 10 men. There is a lot to love about this team.
"It is too good to be true. When we saw the draw, it was like 'Wow'.
"It feels like quarter or semi-finals now. Straight away it felt huge. Since we were here in Mexico, it feels like you're a part of something very big and very special. We all gave our very best," he told the BBC.

England captain Kane, who scored yet again on the night, described the game as "one of my favourite nights in my career".
He said: "What a crazy, crazy game. So many things against us as a team coming here, coming to this fortress and having to get through.
"In the game, the red card, the penalty and so many decisions against us the whole game, but we stuck at it. Everyone who fought for every inch of the ball, every inch of the grass.
"This will only give us more belief and more momentum. What a special night for England.

"We scored three goals away from home against a team that have not conceded in the tournament.
"We played 40-50 minutes with 10 men, so whatever you say about us as a team. The one thing we do have is complete desire, determination and pride in the shirt."
The incredible victory means England will face Norway on Saturday night at 10pm, after the Norwegians beat Brazil yesterday evening 2-1.
