STORY: It’s a classic offered to football fans on Monday. Germany meets England in the Nations League. However, neither team goes into the match with a tailwind. The German national team lost Friday’s game against Hungary 1-0 and is now third in the group, behind Hungary and Italy. Not a good sign for the upcoming World Cup in Qatar, according to many fans and observers. Coach Hansi Flick takes the criticism seriously. “I mean, that’s in many – of course I’ve also read one or the other thing you write here. It’s also reasonable and it’s also right. And that’s why it’s just that you ultimately have to see it There’s still a long way to go and of course we always ask a lot from the players, but I think we have – again, not faith, I’m convinced – we have one good team and we will show everything and do everything we can at the World Cup so that we can play successfully.” England is also under pressure. The Three Lions have lost three times in their last five games, most recently 1-0 to Italy on Friday. For manager Gareth Southgate, recent results are unacceptable. The day before the match against Germany, however, he urged calm. “Not winning football games is a situation that we don’t enjoy. But we have to take the right steps every day to improve the little things that can make the difference. And if we do it like this every day, that Keeping the level high and performing, then the results will come at some point.” However, there is not much left for Southgate Team in the Nations League on Monday evening at London’s Wembley Stadium, in Group 3 England are in last place.
