After 80 years, the Germans have to taste the bitter taste of being eliminated from the first round of a World Cup. The German Football Federation's leadership must admit that they are subjective when they trust their former players too much. The rejuvenation in the national team is taking place too slowly, to the point that Man City star Sane is still at home watching the World Cup.
Joachim Loew is still trusted to lead the German tank, he decided to reform the team from the first round of the UEFA Nations League. The 4-2-3-1 formation is positioned at 3-4-3, on the attack line are the new trio of Serge Gnabry, Timo Werner, todayy Sane. On the wings, Thilo Kehrer and Nico Schultz are trusted.
The ministries such as Thomas Mueller, Jerome Boateng and Mats Hummels were all left out of the call-up. On the other hand, names like right-back Lukas Klostermann (RB Leipzig), midfielders Niklas Stark (Hertha), Maximilian Eggestein (Bremen) were given a team meal for the first time.
The form of the German national team has been quite unstable recently. In the last 10 matches, Germany won 4 matches, drew 2 matches but also lost 4 matches.
Although he is not in good form, Duc still plays quite well at home. In the last 10 home matches, DT Duc have won 5 matches and lost only 1 match.
Meanwhile, Serbia is also in good form. This team has just played very successfully in the recent UEFA Nations League. In the last 10 matches, Serbia won 6 matches, drew 2 matches and lost 2 matches.
The match promises to be very exciting as new players will definitely want a memorable debut.
