England manager Thomas Tuchel had revealed that his team will follow his predecessor Sir Gareth Southgate's penalty shootout blueprint at the World Cup.
Tuchel's side face DR Congo in their first knockout game of the tournament on Wednesday, a scenario that opens up the potential for penalties.
The match, which kicks off in Atlanta at 17:00 BST, is live on BBC One and iPlayer.
Prior to Southgate's appointment as manager in 2016, the national team had a poor record in major tournament shootouts - winning just one of seven.
But under Southgate, England took their penalty preparations to a new level which resulted in three out of four successes between 2018 and 2024.
