Nations League-the DFB team as a miracle bag

Perhaps the German footballers would have had a working tour quite well before. Julian Nagelsmann recently immortalized himself on the famous fender, on which the prominence from all over the world signs when she visits how man and machine work together at the headquarters of the largest German car manufacturer. From VW side it was said that Christian Wück’s signature should be added promptly. Then both national coaches of the German Football Association in Wolfsburg had seen that no tenth of a millimeter is tolerated at this location. The DFB women, on the other hand, endeavor to the dimensions of a production hall in the factory arena in the Nations League against Scotland (6: 1).

With an international match between deep sleep and dream goals, the players had stabbed their coach as delighted, which is why Wück first said at the ARD microphone: »The girls made me speechless twice. As you can show two faces with the almost the same troops, that’s exceptional. “Of course, it is also:” We cannot afford such a half at the European Championship. “Then the final round in Switzerland ended in summer before it gets serious.

Later in the press conference, the 51-year-old looked for explanatory approaches almost desperately why his ensemble still resembles a huge miracle bag under his direction in the eighth international matches. His team only “did not come to the performance limit” in order to then put on a “performance explosion”, “that was impressive in the other direction”. The native of the Lower Franconia did not take off himself during the cause research. Together with his co-trainers Saskia Bartusiak and Maren Meinert, the coaching team apparently did not manage to convey the right posture after the 4-0 in the first leg. The team initially called up “a maximum of 50 percent”. That is not even enough against the group last.

Horst Hrubesch also repeated missing consistency. The interim coach often had to talk plain text in the half. His successor Wück also made a “fat announcement” during the break, as Selina Çerçi revealed, who loved all blockages with her school -like header to 1-1. Suddenly it ran like lubricated with five goals within 25 minutes. The 16,102 fans in the stadium on the assembly line tread the tormelody of “Major Tom”. The Çerçi, who played for TSG Hoffenheim, met three times, who afterwards treated the game ball in their possession as carefully as a newborn. “I’ll stand it somewhere. That is also a small drive for the European Championship. “After the break,” much more freely “was played and” just gambled “.

The 24-year-old received a special praise from Wück as Giovanna Hoffmann. With the center forward, which is currently still running for RB Leipzig, who may soon be playing permanently in Wolfsburg, the German attack game had more pace and depth after the break-the 25-year-old skilfully laced up her double pack. “She is a born center forward,” praised the former Bundesliga striker Wück.

And then there was also the long hapless Laura Freiegel, who banged the ball 5: 1 with the heel over the line. A possible “goal of the month” exactly at the point where the Brazilian Grafite made the preliminary decision in the championship in favor of VfL Wolfsburg 16 years ago against FC Bayern. She was unable to do anything else in the situation, the offensive all -rounder from Eintracht Frankfurt was pleased. Despite the rashes, the 27-year-old is optimistic for the summer: »Our ceiling is very high. If we play good football, you have to count on us. We have to keep the level more constant – but that’s classic for a young team. «

The national coach only wants to nominate his final EM squad after the last Nation League duels against the Netherlands in Bremen (May 30) and against Austria in Vienna (June 3). At the neighborhood duel against the “Orange Leuwinnen”, also a possible EM quarter-final opponent, Wück already looked ahead of the departure from the Autostadt: »We won 6: 1, we make a catch behind it. And then we see that we perform well in Bremen from the first to the last minute. «
