Former Bayern Munich head coach Julian Nagelsmann took over the German nationwide workforce with nice optimism, however it has fizzled in a foul method after being eradicated from the World Cup on penalties by Paraguay.
After the match, DFB director Rudi Völler went to bat for the ex-RB Leipzig and Hoffenheim supervisor.
“He’s nonetheless a prime coach, he’s a fighter, he’ll regroup after such a painful defeat and are available again able to assault once more. I do know lots of people gained’t perceive that after we’ve been eradicated like this. I’m nonetheless satisfied he’s most likely the precise man to proceed. However I’m not the DFB alone. It’s not my choice alone,” Völler mentioned (as captured by @iMiaSanMia).
These final two sentences are key. Whereas Völler might need Nagelsmann’s again, it stays to be seen how the opposite energy brokers gauge what can solely be mentioned to be a disappointing efficiency in North America. Sure, the Germans escaped the group stage, however being upset by Paraguay is just not more likely to go over nicely.
