UEFA Nations League: Germany vs England
02:45 UEFA Nations League: Germany vs England
After the first round of the European League, no one thought that the first place in Group C was Hungary, and England is currently at the bottom of the group with 0 points, while Germany currently has 1 point after the first round of the draw with Italy.
England beat Germany in a cup knockout round for the first time in 55 years last summer and have now broken the psychological spell against Germany. The winner of that match was Glalis on the bench, and in the first round against Hungary as a substitute, Glalis is expected to start the game.
England started on the bench on Saturday, with James Justin for Leicester City and Jarot Bowen at West Ham both making their debuts for the national team, with the likes of Phillips, Trippier, Sterling and Stones not starting.
Facing Hungary in the first round, Southgate was bold and tried to form a three-centre-back with Kyle Walker, Connor Cody and Harry Maguire, but it was ineffective, and it was not until 79 minutes that Phillips came on to return to the four and England really created a threat in the final stages.
There is a growing perception that the three centre-backs, in addition to being too cautious in attacking and inhibiting England, are not in line with England's squad structure, that Alexander-Arnold is more suited to play as a full-back than a winger, and that midfielders such as Bellingham and Declan Rice must have a back to make up for defensive deficiencies when starting first. In the event of losing the first game, England should return to the four backs and avoid losing two games in a row.
Germany played the first game against Italy's full main force, Kimmich played the whole game, and Müller was not replaced until 80 minutes, compared to England, who suspended some of the main forces in the first round, the German team's physical fitness is at a disadvantage.
The weakness of the German team has always been the right-back position, because of the needs of organizational functions, Kimmich to play the back, this time the German team took Henrichs as a right-back, but the first performance was generally replaced by Hoffmann, who played as a winger, Hoffmann has also been a winger at the club, and this Sterling has a high probability of returning to the first place, impacting the right side of the German team. To sum up: England can score the worst unbeaten game
