Tuchel praised the overall support in the 1-0 win against the tiny state, even though they booed his team at half-time.
He said after full-time in Spain: “Booing is OK.
"The support was amazing. Incredible.
“They created a fantastic atmosphere.
"They were underwhelmed with the way we performed.
"It’s not that we can blame them for that.
"I didn’t hear any abusive songs or chants.
"But if it happened, of course, it’s not acceptable.”
It's thought that Declan Rice is being rested with a view to starting against Senegal on Tuesday evening instead.
Other unusual choices appear to include Reece James starting at left-back and Liverpool midfielder Curtis Jones being deployed as a make-shift right-back.
