The World Cup champion team lost to the small European country North Macedonia. What happened to the German team?

Germany, the former world champion, lost to France in the first match of the European Cup. In fact, Germany was already dying in the 20 18 group match, such as losing to the small European country North Macedonia. So what happened to the German team?

If we want to talk about traditional football giants, rammstein will not be forgotten. Germany has always left a stable impression on fans, but since winning the championship in 20 14, the youth training mode and concept of German football have lagged far behind other European countries. Because Germany pays too much attention to the concepts of tactics and passing control, but forgets the foundation of football: physical confrontation and header attack. So in seven years, the speed of light dropped: German football went from heaven to hell.

It was the 2007 World Youth Championship and the 2009 European Youth Championship that blew out German talents. The golden generation, represented by Neuer, Cross, Ozil, Mill, boateng and Gotze, rose rapidly and occupied a place in the national team. So from 2008 to 20 14, the record of German football was very good, but after 20 15, Germany began to weaken. The most fatal thing is that Klose and Ram have no successors.

Transmission and control have harmed Germany. No player has the iron spirit before. Loew won the World Cup by kicking out the passing and ball control of immigrant players and young players. However, those players who are big at home can't play to the extreme of Spain. In the long run, they are doomed to fail. If Loew doesn't finish class, Germany will be finished. In the past, regardless of whether the players broke or not, both Germany and China were favourites to win the championship. The weakest player won the second place in the World Cup in 2002, relying on the spirit of iron and blood. At that time, the defense lines Ramhummels, boateng and Alaba were all in their prime, but now the defense line is too poor because of the series of counterattacks by midfielder Ozil Cross.

Too much pursuit of passing control, can not cultivate a good center, was biased by Spain. The center position has always been the lifeline of the German team, but it has lost its proud spirit of iron and blood. Feeling that the current German players are not enterprising enough, Royce refused to leave Dortmund. Ram and others withdrew from the national team early. Look at Spanish players like Harvey. After the grand slam, I played for my country, which is unparalleled.

Loew's Stubborn "Old Man Thinking"

The most important thing is that the homogenization of youth training talents is too serious, and in the Bundesliga, except Bayern, the styles among other teams are too inconspicuous. Bayern is also easier to be recognized because its technical and tactical level is much higher than other teams. Moreover, in the past, Bayern almost monopolized the main position of the national team. Most of the other players were not famous because of how well the team itself played, but were discovered after being selected into the national team. These teams were far from being as powerful as expected. Loew totally wanted to emphasize personal style in this World Cup, but the German team won the championship, and every time a great center made a name for himself in the history of German football. Now that this position is empty, Loew wanted to play without a front. From 2006 to 14, it was actually the team framework of Klinsmann period, represented by Ram and Klose, and the character of Laode still existed. Later, with the exit of Ram and K God, it was still there.
