Football: Germany completes Russia

In the League of Nations, the Germans are in Gelsenkirchen only in the league – if the Netherlands, Friday in Rotterdam, do not win against France, leader and world champion. In a Dutch success, the selection of the German Football Federation (DFB) in League B would be sealed prematurely.

Leroy Sane scored his first international goal in a friendly match against Russia in front of 35,288 spectators in Leipzig for the DFB selection leadership (8). Niklas Süle (25th) and Serge Gnabry (40th) increased the score to 3: 0 before half-time. For the first time of the year in the World Cup, the German national team scored more than two goals in a match and won the highest victory since the 5-1 against Azerbaijan there 13 months ago.

Sad annual balance improved

Germany has also improved its dull annual balance with a net win at home. Now, the world champion dethroned could win four with twelve international matches. In addition, there were six defeats – including 1: 2 against Austria in Klagenfurt – and two draws. If the number of five were successful at the end of the year, it would still be the leanest year under Löw in 2015, with 2015. Judging by the defeats, the Germans experienced the worst year of the year. the story of 111 years.

Löw continues its rejuvenation process

Löw continued its process of rejuvenation against a "Sbornaja" weakened by the replacement. Only the captain and goalkeeper, Manuel Neuer and Jonas Hector, were over 25 years old. The young troop met the expectations of the beginning, the leaders set the tone and laid the foundation for victory before the break. Sane had no trouble completing the Gnabry Cross in the surface.

The 2: 0 fell to a standard situation. After the Kimmich corner and Rüdiger's header, central defender Süle was qualified as nine scorer goals. 1: 0-preparer Gnabry also became before the break for the scorer. Kai Havertz gave an ideal pbad to Bayern Munich striker. The 23-year-old finished off the penalty area in the corner as well.

After the break, the League of Nations B players before the climb, defended a little higher, were brave, but still failed to go on the offensive on the stage. For the team manager, Stanislaw Tschertschessow, who had kept the goal in the 2001/02 season at FC Tirol under Löw, there was therefore no reason to enjoy the duel Prestige with his former coach. After the break, the Germans controlled the events without becoming dangerous themselves. Many changes of players on both sides had a negative impact on the course of the match.
