Julian Nagelsmann (36) had a successful start. The German national team defeated the USA 3-1 on their debut on the sidelines. The players are convinced of the 36-year-old – and after a long time the euphoria is spreading in our neighboring country.

Nagelsmann has breathed new life into his team after just one week. “We notice that there is someone standing in front of us who has an authoritarian, good attitude. The coach’s ideas are powerful and take us to a higher level. “He is a coach who has a lot of ideas and is very ambitious,” said striker Niclas Füllkrug (30) enthusiastically after the match.

The first week of training shows an effect

DFB captain Ilkay Gündogan (32) is also impressed after the first days under Nagelsmann. “It’s a kind of football that’s a little bit different. We have really done a lot of good things in a short time.”

And DFB sports director Rudi Völler (63) says: “Julian conveyed his idea in a wonderful, carefree way during the training sessions, including in the meetings – just as many players naturally know him from the various clubs he has already coached.”

TV ratings speak for Nagelsmann

Nagelsmann himself is satisfied after his debut against the USA. “It was important that we had a certain aesthetic in the game. It looked good today, we played good and passionate football. Football-wise, it was a good ninety minutes and an absolutely deserved victory.”

Nagelsmann’s euphoria is also noticeable among the German audience. The match against the USA was watched on TV by a peak of 7.76 million people on Saturday evening. No other international game generated better viewing figures on RTL this year.

Next test against Mexico

Legend Stefan Effenberg (55) says in the “double pass” on Sport1: “Julian Nagelsmann has a clear speech, a clear plan. He has a certain presence, a certain personality, and that resonates with the team.” There is also praise from the opponent. Germany is now a ‘serious title candidate’, says American national coach Gregg Berhalter (50) with a view to the 2026 World Cup.
