Julian Nagelsmann celebrates 'deserved' Germany win but points to needed defensive improvements
""We created many big chances against an opponent that usually concedes very little. I think we could have scored many more goals. Switzerland certainly made the most of their few chances. Flo scored a couple of exceptional goals, that has to be said.""
""Defensively, things weren't always good today. We were too passive at times. That has to be pointed out quite clearly. Overall, though, we deserved to win.""
Germany triumphed 4-3 over Switzerland in a March international friendly, with Florian Wirtz scoring a decisive goal in the 85th minute. The match featured a back-and-forth exchange of goals, starting with Switzerland's Dan Ndoye. Despite Germany's offensive prowess, their defense was criticized for being too passive. Coach Nagelsmann noted the team's ability to create chances but acknowledged the need for improvement before the upcoming 2026 FIFA Men's World Cup. The match highlighted both the potential and the vulnerabilities of the German squad.
