The European Championship this February serves as a qualifier for the 2027 Rugby World Cup in Australia, with a historic opportunity for second-tier nations. Notably, Germany, celebrating its centenary, can secure one of four spots now available. Head coach Mark Kuhlmann emphasizes the urgency for German rugby to generate success and heroes akin to past sports icons. The new qualification format increases competition, contributing to the excitement as Germany will face Romania, Belgium, and Portugal, all significant matches that could define their future in rugby.
"I know Germany isn't waiting on it [whether they qualify or not], but it is a great moment for German rugby."
