Whatever," he said. The Real Madrid player highlighted the physical demands of the match.
"It's difficult out there. It's a tough shift.
All the players have put in a tough shift, so my thoughts and appreciation goes to the players who were out there and put in a great shift yet again."
Bellingham suggested Tuchel lacked perspective on facing top Norwegian players in those conditions.
"Maybe he doesn't know what it's like to play in those kind of conditions against Erling Haaland, [Martin] Ødegaard, [Antonio] Nusa, [Alexander] Sørloth.
That's not an easy team to play against."
He added, "You're not going to win every game, popping the ball and making a thousand passes.
Sometimes you have to win dirty, and we've done that again tonight."
When asked if England were lucky, Bellingham replied, "No comment."
Captain Harry Kane revealed Tuchel shared his critical assessment with the squad after the match.
"He just said in the changing room: massive congratulations and we should enjoy it and celebrate but it still feels like there's a part of him that knows we can do better, which in a way is a good thing," Kane said.
Norway coach Ståle Solbakken commented on Erling Haaland's substitution before extra time due to injury. "It was not a tough decision because he was finished," Solbakken said.

He noted Haaland picked up a dead leg in the second half, adding, "Maybe I should have taken him off 10 minutes before."
