Thomas Tuchel sent SMS of good luck to the players of England of Crystal Palace before visiting Selhurst Park to see them beat Ipswich.

And Henderson revealed that the German had taken the unusual measure to report his visit before kick -off.
“Thomas sent me a text before the match to say that he would watch and to wish me all the best, and it is to know that he is watching,” said the goalkeeper of the palace.
Henderson, who hopes to add to his two caps, had a solid match when his team won for the fourth time in row thanks to the deceased winner of Ismaila Sarr.
“All I can control is what I can control, which does my work for the team and present myself at great times, which I do,” said Henderson.
