Nagelsmann criticized: DFB anger after 2:3 defeat against Turkey

Anyone who thought that peace would return to our neighbors from Germany after the coaching change from Hansi Flick (58) to Julian Nagelsmann (36) is completely wrong. After the 2-3 test defeat against Turkey, which played with a B team, the DFB is again under pressure.

The reason for this is not only the match in the Olympic Stadium in Berlin, which was almost an away match due to the many Turks present. No, the Germans are mainly angry because of coach Nagelsmann’s attitude.

Attacker in defense

Kai Havertz (24), actually a striker, will be deployed as a left defender on Saturday evening. Expert Lothar Matthäus (62) therefore shakes his head. The national record company’s record player told RTL: “Julian Nagelsmann has an idea that he explained. But I thought the experiment was over after Hansi Flick was given a leave of absence.

Left back Havertz scored a goal for Germany, but also clumsily scored a penalty that led to 2:3 and ultimately to a defeat. “Franz Beckenbauer once said that a striker has absolutely no place in his own penalty area,” said Matthäus, who also questioned the basic order and composition of the first eleven in his conclusion to the match. «Gündogan and Kimmich simply do not fit together in the double six because they are too similar. I don’t understand why it is always done this way. Someone like Goretzka or Gross (from Brighton, editor’s note) has to go there.’

Nagelsmann: “Excellent game from Havertz”

Nagelsmann, who received a 5 from the newspaper ‘Bild’, does not want to give in. He also comments on his experiment and defends it: “Kai Havertz played an excellent match. That’s the only personality who played a little deeper than normal. But the one personality that might have been surprising today was probably our best man.”

Nagelsmann’s opinion is completely different from that of Matthäus. Who is right? Only one thing is clear: if the result is not correct after such tricks, the coach makes himself vulnerable.

Next Tuesday (8:45 p.m.) Austria will wait for the DFB team. If the ‘Nagelsmann curve’ continues, Germany would then have to concede four goals. Because: Germany scored one goal in the first match under the new coach, two in the second and now three in the third. Will striker Havertz also play as a left back on Tuesday? That remains to be seen. (par)
