Talking about the German team's game philosophy

In the game, whether it is one-on-one confrontation or full-court pressure, these seemingly simple things will make it very uncomfortable for the opponent. In this way, we can enter a healthy rhythm and continuously increase the intensity of pressing. The national team training time is very limited, so we rely more on video and theoretical analysis, and then practice these in the game. In fact, it's not complicated. The most beautiful scenes in the game often come from our intensity: how we press and fight back after losing the ball. Everyone has the responsibility to do their best to help the team advance to the World Cup. "The short answer: No!" Paris' adjustment to face Luxembourg

We players from Bayern will bring the temperament developed in the club. Everyone has to contribute their own abilities and implement the coach's requirements."

I was already playing for the German youth team, and it was clear that I wanted to play for Germany. Everyone's decision is different, but this choice must come from the heart. For me, there is no doubt that playing for Germany."
