Germany was in need of a good performance and Luxembourg was the right squad for the moment. 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.

"We all know things didn't go so well (against Slovakia). But I'd rather lose the first one than lose the important ones later. Of course, he (Nagelsmann) is still the right one. We shouldn't throw everything after one game. I'm convinced we'll play better tonight. We should talk more about football in Germany, and not only transfers, transfers, transfers. If we do that then we'll play better," Hoeneß said during an appearance on SPORT1-Doppelpass (as captured by @iMiaSanMia).

Hansi Flick's time as national coach was not really a successful one - and Julian Nagelsmann's statistics hardly look any better! 😮 What does this ultimately mean? Maybe not much - except that Nagelsmann's effectiveness in running the squad could be waning just Flick's impact faded. Hopefully, that is not the case because there might not be a coach to answer the "Bat signal" should the DFB have to use it once again.

Sporting success is the foundation. This naturally creates a better feeling among the people in the country, and the connection between fans and team is positively charged.
