Manager Thomas Tuchel expressed confidence in Rice's fitness, stating he is ready to start the crucial match in Atlanta despite recent health concerns. Rice had been unwell and bedridden for three days leading up to the quarter-final against Norway, where he was substituted at half-time, and has also been managing a persistent hamstring issue since Christmas. Tuchel confirmed that all players are fit to start, with the exceptions of Jordan Henderson, who missed training due to arm surgery, and Jarell Quansah, who is serving a two-match ban. Right-back Reece James is also pushing for a starting spot, having returned from a three-game hamstring absence as a second-half substitute against Norway.In fullThomas Tuchel confirms Declan Rice ‘ready to start’ against Argentina after illnessMore bulletinsThank you for registeringPlease refresh the page or navigate to another page on the site to be automatically logged inPlease refresh your browser to be logged in
