Berlin, Aug 24 (Ians) Despite the ongoing summer holiday season, working days at the headquarters of the German Football Association in Frankfurt appear packed with important appointments.
As Germany gears up to host the 2024 UEFA Euro, the struggling 2014 World Champion faces a pivotal moment that could determine the country’s future participation at football’s highest level.
Following disappointing campaigns at the 2018 and 2022 FIFA World Cups, desperate efforts are underway to reclaim success.
Despite securing 42-year-old Hannes Wolf as the suitable director, uncertainties loom over the recovery of talent development failures before the 2024 Euro.
The selection of the former Hamburg, Leverkusen, and Stuttgart coach aims to establish a team-oriented structure involving various figures, thereby addressing responsibilities that were centralized until Oliver Bierhoff’s departure in December 2022.
Simultaneously, worries intensify over the outcomes of the international matches under national coach Hansi Flick until the close of 2023.

Berlin, June 21 (Ians) Colombia clinched a 2-0 friendly win over an uninspired Germany thanks to second-half goals from Luis Diaz and Juan Cuadrado.
After two consecutive winless games, Hansi Flick’s men were looking for victory to take a positive result into the summer break, but it was the visitors from South America who took the reins, reports Xinhua.
Yerry Mina headed narrowly wide in the 14th minute before Rafael Santos Borre’s dangerous header forced Germany goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen into action nine minutes later.
Germany couldn’t keep the visitors at bay as Malick Thiaw denied Diaz a free shot with a last-ditch tackle at the half-hour mark. Ter Stegen remained busy and tipped Mina’s effort over the bar moments later.
Germany showed signs of life in the closing stages of the first half when Kai Havertz’s effort was saved by Colombia goalkeeper Camilo Vargas.

Warsaw, June 17 (Ians) Jakub Kiwior’s header from the first half allowed Poland men’s football team to beat Germany 1-0 in Jakub Blaszczykowski farewell match for the national team in the friendly, here.
It was Blaszczykowski’s 109th game for Poland, who wore the national team captain’s armband from 2010 to 2014.
The former Borussia Dortmund and VfL Wolfsburg winger left the pitch in the 16th minute with a standing ovation from the fans. The farewell game turned out to be very emotional for “Kuba” as he couldn’t hold back his tears just after his last action in the match on Friday.
The hosts found a winner in the 31st minute thanks to a perfect Sebastian Szymanski cross from a corner kick and Jakub Kiwior’s header at the far post.

Bremen (Germany), June 13 (Ians) Late goals from Kai Havertz and Joshua Kimmich helped Germany to clinch a 3-3 stalemate against resilient Ukraine in front of 35,975 spectators at the Weser stadium, here.
The Germans assumed control from the kick off as Niclas Fullkrug came close with only two minutes played. Fullkurg remained in the thick of things as he opened the scoring four minutes after deflecting Marius Wolf’s dangerous shot.
The hosts should have made it two but for all that Julian Brandt rattled only the side netting from promising position in the 11th minutes on Monday.
The visitors from the Ukraine sparked to life out of thin air as Brandt’s misplaced pass allowed Oleksandr Tymchyk to set up for Viktor Tsygankov, who beat Germany goalkeeper Kevin Trapp with a low shot from a tight angle in the 18th minute.

Berlin (Germany), June 8 (Ians) German national team coach Hansi Flick is currently facing his biggest challenge since taking over as coach of the 2014 world champions in August 2021.
After the disappointing 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar, Flick’s main focus is now on building a competitive team for the UEFA Euro 2024, which will be hosted by Germany.
Together with former Leverkusen director and German striker icon Rudi Voller, Flick had to work hard to regain the trust of the fans after a series of unsuccessful tournaments.
As Flick is currently in the process of selecting a new squad in preparation for the 2024 tournament, the German association is also in negotiations with former Real Madrid and Juventus midfielder Sami Khedira, reports Xinhua.
The 36-year-old Khedira is expected to join the national team staff and take on strategic tasks, alongside former Stuttgart coach Hannes Wolf, who will be responsible for talent development.

Berlin, March 29 (Ians) Two quick first-half goals paved the way for Belgium’s first win over Germany since 1954 following a 3-2 away victory.
The Red Devils took the reins from the start and made a perfect start on the road as Kevin De Bruyne’s through ball sent Yannick Carrasco, who finished the job with the opener into the roof of the net with six minutes played on Tuesday night.
De Bruyne remained in the thick of things and kept Germany’s defense busy as Romelu Lukaku doubled the lead courtesy of De Bruyne’s defense-splitting pass three minutes later.
Germany couldn’t keep Belgium at bay and were lucky in the 19th minute when Dodi Lukebakio failed to make it 3-0 after missing the target with only goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen to beat.
Amadou Onana should have scored two minutes later, but the midfielder could only rattle the woodwork from close range.

Berlin, March 27 (Ians) It might have been one of these rare moments of deep satisfaction in the footballing life of Marc-Andre ter Stegen when he slipped into the German shirt for the first games against Peru and Belgium in 2023.
Wearing the number one jersey on his back seemed more than just an outer sign of being Germany’s leading goalie.
Due to the serious leg injury of Manuel Neuer, it is more than a bold guess that Ter Stegen might keep the current status as the 2014 world champions’ first keeper, reports news agency Xinhua.
It has been common sense that he is at the same level as Neuer. But the Barcelona keeper turned 30 when he got the reward of figure 1 shining on his shirt.

Berlin, March 27 (Ians) Bayern Munich remains in a state of unrest after the dismissal of coach Julian Nagelsmann.
Despite having quickly found a suitable replacement, former Paris Saint-Germain and Chelsea coach Thomas Tuchel, the mood in the Bavarian club remains at an alarmingly low level, reports Xinhua.
While the 49-year-old Tuchel is going to conduct his first training session this Monday, fans and players seem to regret the surprise sacking of Nagelsmann.
Midfielders Leon Goretzka and Joshua Kimmich spoke about an emotional loss while praising the former coach as one of football’s best.
Kimmich denied reports of the 35-year-old Nagelsmann having lost the locker room.
Goretzka spoke about a deep relationship with the fired manager. “Not only I spent a lot of time on the training ground and meetings, we maybe spend more time with him as we did with our families over the past 18 months,” the German international added.

Berlin (Germany), March 26 (Ians) Niclas Fullkrug’s brace helped Germany cruise 2-0 past Peru in Mainz following the first friendly in 2023 on Saturday.
The Germans took the reins from the get-go and came close with 11 minutes gone as Peru’s goalkeeper Pedro Gallese had to palm away Fullkrug’s dangerous header.
Gallese was hapless moments later though as Fullkrug slotted home Kai Havertz’s good build-up work, reports news agency Xinhua.
Peru’s goalkeeper remained busy but was on guard in quick succession as neither Timo Werner nor Fullkrug was able to beat Gallese from promising positions with 20 minutes played.
The hosts controlled possession and made it 2-0 at the half-hour mark after Marius Wolf raced down the right wing before squaring into the path of Fullkrug, who secured his brace this match and his fifth goal in as many appearances for Germany.

Berlin, Jan 14 (Ians) One of German football’s most famous names is about to take over the challenging job of rescuing the country’s struggling national team.
The final steps to an official announcement are yet to go, but the return of 1990 world champion Rudi Voller appears the only sense-making option after the team and fans seem trapped in an emotional and sportive crisis.
One year ahead of the 2024 Euro hosted by Germany, the 90 time-capped former striker as the managing director must fill the emptiness caused by painful World Cup group exits in 2018 and 2022 and a disappointing Euro 2020.
After approval rates for the national team dropped significantly over the past years, Voller is expected to revitalize the broken relationship between the national team and fans, like a lifesaver.
The 1993 Champions League winner and long-standing CEO of Bayer Leverkusen as the successor of managing director Oliver Bierhoff must turn into a feel-good-manager supporting coach Hansi Flick.

Berlin (Germany), Dec 8 (Ians) Hansi Flick will remain the German national football coach despite the 2014 World Champion’s disappointing group stage exit at the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar.
The news came after a two-hour-long crisis meeting on Wednesday evening in a Frankfurt hotel near the association headquarters.
The 57-year-old was expected to report the reasons for the setback and draw a picture of how to return to success for Euro 2024 to be hosted by Germany.
The country’s third-place finish in Group E marked the second consecutive World Cup at which Germany failed to progress to the knockout stage following the 2018 tournament in Russia.
Flick, however, could have turned down the offer as the German football governing body’s technical director and his supporter Oliver Bierhoff resigned earlier this week and who to follow the 54-year-old was yet to be decided, reports Xinhua.

Berlin, Dec 6 (Ians) The timing of the resignation of one of Germany’s highest-ranked football officials might have come as a surprise to many football fans.
However, it was no shock that 54-year-old Oliver Bierhoff took the responsibility for the second group exit at a World Cup within four years and a disappointing Euro 2020.
Critics mounted up on the former striker, who scored the golden goal in the Euro 96 final, but failed to create stability off the pitch following Germany’s 2014 World Cup win.
The departure of the 70-cap former AC Milan forward opens doors for an inevitable re-launch of German football’s struggling development structures.
The coming days might show how far things go as national coach Hansi Flick seems under similar pressure.
Leading positions regarding the national team’s management need to be filled, and the association’s academy requires new input, to say nothing of a new Sporting Director.

Al Khor (Qatar), Dec 2 (Ians) Germany head coach Hansi Flick has blamed a late lapse against Japan in their opening match for his team’s early World Cup elimination. Kai Havertz scored twice as Germany beat Costa Rica 4-2 in their last group match on Thursday, but Japan’s 2-1 win over Spain meant Hansi Flick’s side finished third in Group E, behind Spain on goal difference.
Flick said his team had paid the price for a poor performance in the first group fixture against Japan when Ritsu Doan and Takuma Asano scored in the last 20 minutes to give the Samurai Blue a 2-1 win.
“Our downfall didn’t happen today, but in 20 minutes against Japan,” Flick said, reports Xinhua. “We could have won against Spain with a bit more efficiency. Nevertheless, the disappointment is huge.”

Berlin, Nov 29 (Ians) Germany are facing a decisive last group game against Costa Rica in an optimistic mood but feel far from a high-flying state.
“What makes us wear a smile is the second chance to get to the next round. But the truth is we have one point and a negative goal record,” Bayern icon Thomas Muller stated.
Bremen striker Niclas Fullkrug mentioned, “it’s not entirely in our hands. Spain was an important step and the 1-1 gives us energy, but after all, it was only a draw.”
To proceed to the knockout stage of the 2022 FIFA World Cup, the struggling 2014 world champion need to beat Costa Rica and at the same time hope for the “help” of Spain against Japan.
“We didn’t get anywhere so far, but now have a second chance and we are desperate to use it,” Fullkrug said after the 29-year-old had scored...

Berlin (Germany), Nov 22 (Ians) Tension is rife around the German team ahead of the group opener against Japan at the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar.
Crossing swords with Japan this Wednesday is the tournament’s most important game from the perspective of German captain Manuel Neuer.
“You gain confidence for the following games with a successful start and avoid getting under pressure in the second group game,” the Bayern goalkeeper said before the German squad took off to Doha.
“It is the game to a great extent deciding about your progress in the tournament,” Neuer added, reminding him of the defeat in the 2018 group opener against Mexico.
While the 36-year-old Neuer is trying to sharpen the team’s senses, coach Hansi Flick is forced to do the job without Leroy Sane.

In total, 32 countries will compete for the coveted trophy that symbolises supremacy in the sport called "The Beautiful Game" by legendary stars like Pele and numerous fans around the globe. As the clock ticks down for the kick-off, everybody is thinking about which teams are favourites to go all the way and which will be the dark horse and cause a few surprises in the mega-event.
Defending champions France, after emerging victorious in 2018, will be again among the favourites, but many nations have their sights set on lifting the trophy on December 18.
Here’s a look at the top contenders for the title:
Brazil: The South American powerhouse is the eternal favourite at the football World Cup. The five-time winners currently boast strength in depth — with the likes of Neymar, Vinicius Junior and Alisson at their disposal. However, they have not savoured World Cup glory since 2002.

Berlin (Germany), Nov 16 (Ians) Antonio Rudiger might not be the biggest name in Germany’s squad for the 2022 FIFA World Cup, but the 29-year-old Real Madrid defender is nothing less than a star.
While 2014 World Cup winners Germany are well equipped in midfield and upfront, Rudiger has to deal with a tricky challenge, to turn a newly-formed backline into a robust stronghold.
For some reason, the job appears a perfect match for him.
His early years in the so-called football cages in one of Berlin’s roughest areas might have taught him the lesson of his life.
The district of Neukolln came near a melting pot of cultures in a tough environment. In his case, things turned into a helpful school of life in many aspects.

Berlin, Nov 12 (Ians) Argentina and Brazil will handle the uncertainties coming along with the 2022 FIFA World Cup better than others, former German and U.S. national coach Jurgen Klinsmann is convinced.
“Brazil has played a very successful qualification campaign and, like Argentina, has the feeling of having to prove they can do better than in the previous World Cups,” the 58-year-old told Xinhua in an interview.
Regarding Argentina, Klinsmann is expecting superstar Lionel Messi to develop high ambitions as the 35-year-old is most likely attending the last major of his career.
Participating teams will have to face unpredictable challenges at the Qatar tournament. “We can’t evaluate at present and I am, for some reason, sure Brazil and Argentina will get along best.”

Berlin (Germany), Oct 28 (Ians) Selecting his squad for the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar comes near a nail-biting puzzle for German coach Hansi Flick.
With roughly two weeks to go until the 57-year-old will announce the 26 players on November 10, Flick is facing several doubtful cases among key figures.
Uncertainties around team cornerstones such as Dortmund striker Marco Reus and Bayern’s Manuel Neuer and Thomas Muller come along with doubts if the German defense can do without Mats Hummels.
While Neuer and Reus suffer from injuries and remain side-lined in their club teams, Muller is facing what the Bayern striker called the “on-and-off modus I am not used to.”
After recovering from a Covid-19 infection, the 33-year-old has to deal with back pain while the reasons for the injury remain in the dark, reports Xinhua.

Berlin, Oct 5 (Ians) It might be one of Bayern Munich’s special values to overcome a crisis by delivering records.
After only three UEFA Champions League group matches, there might be some miles to cover until final glory can be secured, but the 2020 treble winners seem to be already decorating their long journey in the 2022-23 campaign by setting a record of 31 consecutive group games unbeaten.
While the battering of underdog Viktoria Plzen 5-0 appeared a piece of cake, some of the Bavarians’ lately wavering performers took the opportunity to gain additional confidence in advance of “Der Klassiker” against Borussia Dortmund this Saturday, reports Xinhua.
A solid number of goals tells the story about the upswing of Leroy Sane with the German international having scored four goals in the Champions League as well as three in the national league.

B0erlin (Germany), Sep 27 (Ians) Two months ahead of the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar, the number of admirers seems to inevitably grow when it comes to Jamal Musiala.
Bayern Munich board member Uli Hoeness and former German international Lothar Matthaeus convinced that Hansi Flick’s team can’t do without the 19-year-old upstart.
“He is a must for the starting eleven when performing in that way,” the 70-year-old Hoeness said after Germany’s 3-3 draw against England in the Nations League delivered additional compelling arguments.
For a reason, the struggling 2014 world champions’ hopes seem pinned on the England-bred youngster, who made his decision to play in the German shirt after games in the Three Lions youth teams.
The former Southampton and Chelsea talent turned into Germany’s driving force on the Wembley pitch, leaving the crowd behind in astonishment.
Flick’s lineup against England might stand for a turning point in the German team.

Berlin (Germany), Sep 24 (Ians) To find several top European football teams in trouble at present seems a small consolation for German coach Hansi Flick.
With two months out from the 2022 FIFA World Cup’s kick-off, the 2014 world champion Germany has joined the struggling parties providing a poor performance against underdog Hungary in the Nations League and collecting the first defeat in 14 games under the former Bayern Munich manager.
With Italy having missed the World Cup, England, France and Germany are struggling in the home stretch for the World Cup.
With only Spain getting along well in the Nations League, the African, Asian and South American teams might be mulling over the possibility of breaking the evident domination of the European teams at the latest World Cups.
The past four World Cup titles were won by France, Germany, Spain and Italy, and one has to go back as far as 2002 to find Brazil taking the trophy.

Rome, Sep 24 (Ians) England dropped into the League B of UEFA Nations League after a 1-0 away defeat to Italy while Germany were stunned by Hungary with a 1-0 setback on home soil.
England sat bottom with two points in Group 3 of League A before Friday’s game, while Italy ranked third with five points. The two finalists of Euro 2020 played out a goalless tie in the first leg.
Italy entered San Siro without injured Marco Verratti and Sandro Tonali, as Jorginho pulled the string in the midfield and Giacomo Raspadori partnered with West Ham man Gianluca Scamacca up front. Harry Kane spearheaded England’s three-forward line flanked by Raheem Sterling and Phil Foden, reports Xinhua.
It was a tedious first half as both sides failed to create too many opportunities, and the most promising chance emerged in the fourth minute when Scamacca saw his header hit the woodwork.

The former striker not only spoke of winning the 2022 World Cup as a realistic goal but delivered in his perspective convincing reasons why the 2014 world champion is prepared to kick the can down the road.

Berlin, Sep 20 (Ians) Bayern Munich’s newly implemented spearhead-less tactics are an advantage for the national team, says German coach Hansi Flick.
Ahead of the UEFA Nations League encounters against Hungary and England, the 57-year-old is convinced the 2014 world champion is going to benefit from the Bavarian players’ gained experience.
While the Nations League games turn into the national teams’ last vital test runs ahead of the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar, the former Bayern coach isn’t concerned due to the 2020 treble winners’ current result crisis.
“As I recon they still create a flood of chances in all of their games; that’s what counts for me,” the former midfielder stated ahead of Friday’s duel against Hungary in Leipzig.
Regarding the performance of Leroy Sane, Serge Gnabry, Thomas Muller, and Jamal Musiala in the German shirt, Flick spoke about advantages as “they play more or less similar positions and system in their club.

Berlin, Sep 19 (Ians) For over a decade Marco Reus has been on a troubled journey between on-pitch action and recovery measures due to injuries.
Statistics speak of 131 games and 1135 days missed by the Dortmund striker, mounting up to over three years of absence.
While the 33-year-old’s story stands as one of football’s most tragic medical reports, the player capped 48 times has developed resilience and a get-up-and-return mentality.
Ahead of the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar, setbacks seem to continue.
Full of optimism, German football’s Mr. Injury has started his next delicate race to make it in time as his ups and downs seem to repeat inexorably.
