3.Germany should wake up from their slumber
The hosts showed the character to win a high-profile game of this magnitude, but the late collapse is what is a matter of concern for Joechim Loew. Germany appeared to fall back on their 2-goal lead, and that’s when all hell broke loose.
The Mannschaft have often been found wanting during the international friendlies, and that’s something they should change. The likes of Australia, USA and France have managed to throw a spanner in their works when instead, they should’ve strolled their way to victory. Their erratic run of form has also affected their world rankings as they’ve been knocked off their perch by counterparts Belgium and now lie 4th in the standings.
Although Germany are still heavy favourites to lift the coveted Henri Delauney trophy at Saint-Denis later this year, they need to bring their A1 game even in the friendlies so that they enter the tournament with optimal spirits.
