“Terrible! A blow to the neck!”, Bastian Schweinsteiger fights after Germany’s historic 0: 6 bankruptcy against Spain in the ARD studio for words. And commentator Tom Bartels talks about “one of the blackest days in German football.” At this point, it’s only 0: 5.
The national coach Jogi Löw was already counted before the match, the «Bild» expected a departure no later than after the MS next year. But Germany’s most brutal setback since 1931 (0: 6 against Austria) shook Löw’s chair even more.
Jogi: “You have to ask others that!”
Team principal Oliver Bierhoff strengthens his coach’s back, at least in public: “The confidence in Jogi Löw is completely there, absolutely. This game doesn’t change that either. “And Löw cares about his work?” If I have to worry, you have to ask others. I can’t answer that now. “
So let’s ask others. Because in the country of 80 million national coaches, the media and experts are shooting everywhere. “Now Jogi is reeling,” he headlines “Bild” and criticizes under the headline “The perplexed appearance of ‘Somehow’ on Jogi’s television” the monosyllabic explanations of the 2014 world champion coach. With the currently unemployed Ralf Rangnick and the coach Under-21 national Stefan Kuntz brought into play two possible successors. “This debacle must have consequences,” claims “Sport1” and also asks the coach.
Özil demands Boateng
In addition, numerous former national players speak out. “It’s time to bring Jérôme Boateng back to the DFB team,” Mesut Özil, who retired from Arsenal, said on Twitter. The fact that Löw has been without Boateng, as well as Thomas Müller and Mats Hummels since the beginning of 2019 has been the constant theme of the DFB-Elf in recent weeks.
It is logical that the calls for the trio to return are logical, says former world footballer Lothar Matthäus in “Bild”: “I have never seen such total failure! The discussion about Hummels and Boateng will continue. You need these leaders after such a defeat! In terms of team leadership, Müller will be mentioned. The Spanish only had escorts. A speaker like Müller is missing. But I don’t think Jogi Löw deviates from his opinion of all three. “
And when Schweinsteiger found his words again in the ARD study, he analyzed: “The national coach and his team have one opinion, but unfortunately I personally have a different one. Players like Jérôme Boateng and Thomas Müller won the triple, with the best team in Europe. They play in the first team and they have quality, they are German players. Why not for the national team? “Schweini gives himself the answer to this rhetorical question when dictating his dream team for MS: with Boateng and Müller, but without Hummels. By the way, he did not have to appoint a coach. (Red)
