After crushing Hungary 5-0 on Saturday, there was nowhere to go, but down, right?
That is exactly what happened during Germany’s 2-2 draw with the Netherlands, but it was not a precipitous, calamitous fail like many would have you believe.
There were some positives throughout the match, but also some uneven play, which led to the result. For German national team boss, it was just not good enough. Still, the coach remained very positive.
“It was an entertaining, exciting, open game from both teams. We reacted well after going behind and deserved to take the lead at half time. Unfortunately, we conceded the equalizer early on in the second half, we defended too aggressively on the box [Schlotterbeck against Brobbey], which wasn’t necessary. We’re aware that every game before the World Cup is important, whether in the Nations League or qualifiers. The team believes in itself, the fans see that the players are giving everything,” said Nagelsmann (as captured by @iMiaSanMia).
Despite the result, Nagelsmann has the squad headed in the right direction. Can the German continue to make progress during the next international break?
