Hansi Flick did without leader Thomas Müller in the starting line-up against England. The national coach did not want this to be understood as a vote of no confidence against the 33-year-old veteran of FC Bayern Munich.
Hansi Flick did without leader Thomas Müller in the starting line-up against England. The national coach did not want this to be understood as a vote of no confidence against the 33-year-old veteran of FC Bayern Munich.
“The question of Thomas Müller does not arise,” said Flick at Wembley Stadium on RTL before the national soccer team’s final group game in the Nations League. Flick emphasized that Müller gives the team so much, and not just on the pitch.
Timo Werner also had to go to the bench. Because Flick made a total of four changes in the starting eleven compared to the 0-1 draw against Hungary. New to the team are Jamal Musiala and Kai Havertz on offense and Nico Schlotterbeck and Thilo Kehrer on defense.
In addition to Müller and Werner, Serge Gnabry was the only replacement this time. Defender Antonio Rüdiger was suspended after the second yellow card he saw against Hungary. Bayern professional Joshua Kimmich led the DFB team as captain in the last international match before the World Cup squad was nominated.
The German team: Ter Stegen – Kehrer, Süle, Schlotterbeck, Raum – Kimmich, Gündogan – Hofmann, Musiala, Sané – Havertz
