Disasters in Russia and Qatar

A winning character that perfectly reflects the mythical phrase of Gary Lineker (“Football is a game where 22 men chase the ball and in the end Germany always wins”) and has been ruined in recent times after the disasters of ‘Mannschaft‘ in the 2018 Russia and Qatar 2022 World Cups, which were eliminated for the first time, something that has never happened in the history of World Cups.

This is how he plays

Kroos changed everything

“The principle of my philosophy is to control the game through possession of the ball and change of pace.” This is how he discovered, in 2022, Julian Nagelsmann a manual he has maintained, with nuances, since he took the reins of ‘Mannschaft‘. Except for one match, which ended in defeat against Turkey (2-3), the German coach chose a 4-2-3-1 that started to make sense announcing the return of Toni Kroos in choosing. The Madrid player will be the link in between Robert Andrichits ‘stopper’ Germanyand Ilkay Gundoganwith young people Florian Wirtz and Jamal Musiala gives vertigo and overflow outside. An equation that leads to Joshua Kimmich to occupy the right side, with Kai Havertz acting as a false nine.

The technician

Julian Nagelsmann

The most expensive coach in the history of football, for whom the Bayern Munich paid 25 million euros in 2021, and the youngest at Euro 2024, at the age of only 36, faces his first major competition at the head of the German team, which he took over in September 2023. Since then he has won two defeats , two draws and four wins, the last of them against Greece (2-1), in a friendly with some certainties, like an eleven that seems clear today nowand a lot of doubt, especially between the sticks and at the point of attack.
