DFB director general, Andreas Rettig, expects the German national team to draw the good conclusions of the painful international bankruptcy in Slovakia. « The team was rightly criticized, » Rettig told « Prosieben Maxx ». « I think that the coach found the right words, Rudi Völler found the right words, but also the team, and I liked it, was self-criticism. She really continued to widen very hard. »
The selection of the German (Site notre bureau spécialisé) association of the national coach Julian Nagelsmann had lost 0-2 in Bratislava against Slovakia Thursday evening during the qualification of the World Cup. When asked during the German International U21 match in Albania, if you will see young people at the World Cup in the team next summer, Rettig was selected. « First of all, we have to qualify. It is also part of the truth. Now we must not start to do the second before the first step after this match, which really left our brand. »
Like the national coach Nagelsmann, Rettig also promised a clear increase in the performance of the next match on Sunday (8:45 p.m./RTL) against Northern Ireland. « We will do our best to show a different face on Sunday, » said DFB director general, « because there is nothing better than being there in a world championship and we are going to throw everything on Sunday in Cologne. »
Nagelsmann wanted six victories in six games on the world of the World Cup. This objective has already disappeared. But of course, first place in group A with the Slovia, Northern Ireland and Luxembourg is still possible. The decision could be made against Slovakia in Leipzig in the last match on November 17 in Leipzig. First, however, a victory should be won on Sunday.
