"After Germany's dominant 4-0 victory over Luxembourg, Bayern Munich star Joshua Kimmich was told that 25 of his 29 career assists for Germany have come while he has played right-back, the veteran understood where the question was going. "In the end the coach decides. I clearly said that I'm happy to play where the coach sees me. At Bayern I'm very clearly a No. 6. In the national team the coach decides,""
"Kimmich had two goals (one penalty kick), so it was no surprise that his return to right-back was well-received by fans. The team spirit appeared to be much higher than the last international where the German were flat and the renewed energy helped power the team to a 4-0 victory. An early red card played a massive role in the outcome, but Germany likely would have rolled easily even without being a man-up for three quarters of the match."
Germany defeated Luxembourg 4-0 with Joshua Kimmich scoring twice, including a penalty, after returning to right-back. Kimmich has registered most of his international assists from right-back but says he is happy to play where the coach sees him. Bayern deploys him primarily as a No. 6, while the national team role is subject to selection. The win featured an early red card that heavily influenced the match, though Germany appeared dominant enough to win comfortably even without the numerical advantage. Improved team spirit and lineup choices contributed to a more energetic performance.
