Germany rebuilds under Jürgen Klopp ahead of the match against Greece

In Berlin’s stadium, the lights go on at 8:45 pm this Sunday as the Mannschaft host Greece for the second matchday of the Nations League. Just three days after the clash with the Netherlands, Germany hopes to bounce back.

A reconstruction under Jürgen Klopp

The Mannschaft is undergoing a full rebuild with the charismatic Jürgen Klopp taking charge, successor to Julian Nagelsmann after the 2026 World Cup. The World Cup left its mark on the other side of the Rhine, recalling the repeated failures to reach the round of 16.

Confidence goal for Germany

Having missed out on qualification for the round of 16 for the third consecutive edition (2018, 2022, 2026), Germany wants to use the Nations League as an ideal competition to regain confidence and re‑establish itself.

Greece in the same deadlock

For its part, Greece is going through a barren spell after failing to qualify for the American World Cup, looking to lift its spirits against a revived opponent.

Expected line‑ups

The expected line‑ups for Germany: Ter Stegen ; Treu, Tah, Schlotterbeck, Brown ; Nmecha, Kimmich, Adeyemi, Wirtz, Schade, Burkhardt. For Greece: Tzolakis ; Vagiannidis, Mavropanos, Retsos, Tsimikas ; Karetsas, Kourbelis, Zafeiris, Tzolis ; Douvikas, Pavlidis.

Match broadcast

The match will be streamed on L’Équipe Live Foot, available this Sunday from 8:45 pm.
