Thomas Tuchel and his staff are preparing the players for severe disruption during the night after Mexican fans made a cacophony in the streets to deprive Ecuador of sleep in the round of 32.

Ecuador demands Mexico investigation

MIKE KEEGAN IN MEXICO CITY: Officials are planning a so-called 'ring of steel' around England's Mexico City hotel - in an attempt to prevent a repeat of the raucous scenes that marred Ecuador's visit. Cars‚ fog horns‚ fireworks and loud music triggered a miserable night's sleep for Mexico's last opponents - and a complaint to FIFA. However‚ it is understood that a series of measures are expected to be put in place to try and ensure Thomas Tuchel and his players do not face similar problems on the eve of their last-16 battle.

Josué Caicedo: Barcelona's Loan Deal That's Built to Become Permanent

Germany stars have reportedly been requesting 'more clarity' from head coach Julian Nagelsmann over his plans ahead of their knock-out stages of the World Cup. Nagelsmann's side face Paraguay in the last-32 today after topping their group‚ despite losing 2-1 to Ecuador in their last match. According to German newspaper BILD‚ players have expressed concerns that they have been 'left in the dark' by Nagelsmann in the build-up to matches.

Moises Caicedo is the new captain of Ecuador after his predecessor Enner Valencia gave up the armband midway through the nation's World Cup campaign.

Scotland's miserable World Cup is officially over and the Tartan Army are heading home after Croatia defeated Ghana on Saturday night. A chastening 3-0 defeat at the hands of Brazil‚ which followed on from a nervy win over Haiti and an uninspiring 1-0 defeat to Morocco‚ had Steve Clarke and his players resigned to heading home at the first opportunity. That has now been mathematically confirmed as wins for Belgium‚ Bosnia & Herzegovina‚ Croatia‚ Ecuador‚ Senegal‚ as well as precious points for Iran‚ Paraguay and Sweden‚ meant that Scotland finished as one of the four worst third placed teams.

Bastian Schweinsteiger has been called 'racist' by Ivory Coast manager Emerse Fae after describing the country's style of football as 'African' and 'wild'. Before Germany's late 2-1 win over Ivory Coast at the World Cup last week‚ former Bayern Munich and Manchester United midfielder‚ 41‚ claimed Fae's team were 'not conditioned by tactics' and that their football was 'a bit African'. He went on to state that Germany‚ who narrowly beat Ivory Coast but suffered a shock 2-1 defeat by Ecuador on Thursday night‚ must be prepared for a 'unpredictable' game due to their 'unorthodox and wild' style of play.
