England had the semifinal in hand, ahead by a goal with fifteen minutes to run, and then let it slip. Tuchel spent those minutes undoing his own work; the substitutions invited pressure rather than relieving it, and Argentina needed no second invitation. Their remontada was the kind you feel coming and are powerless to stop. So it is Spain and Argentina for the title, and England left to play France for third, which is its own quiet punishment. There is a hard lesson in it: a lead is not a result, and the last quarter hour asks more of a manager than the first seventy-five.
