England's Konsa and O’Reilly Doubtful for Czech Match
Ezri Konsa and Nico O’Reilly are both doubtful to participate in England's Nations League match against the Czech Republic on Tuesday night, having missed training on Monday morning. Both players followed individual training programs after playing the full 90 minutes in the previous match against Spain, where O’Reilly started at left-back.
His potential absence could provide an opportunity for Lewis Hall to take the position. O’Reilly was involved in a critical moment during the match against Spain, where his mistake allowed Alex Baena to equalize at 2-2 before Spain secured a victory.
Konsa, a centre-back for Arsenal, has been a key player under coach Thomas Tuchel, starting seven of the eight matches during the World Cup. If Konsa cannot play, Jarrad Branthwaite, who substituted for Marc Guehi late in the match against Spain, may be considered for a starting role.
England is scheduled to play four matches in this international window, including two against the Czech Republic and one against Croatia.
