Germany vs. Spain, Euro 2024 quarter-finals: DFB team in the live ticker – Before the start
Before the start: But enough of the preliminaries, the game is about to begin in Stuttgart. The players are already gathering in the tunnel – all that’s left is the national anthems, then referee Anthony Taylor will blow the whistle to start the spectacle.
Before the start: And to briefly return to the formation of la Roja: no changes from de la Fuente compared to the 4-1 victory over Georgia.
Before the start: The fact that Sané is back on the field is due to the Spanish full-backs often playing offensively. The national coach hopes that Sané can use his speed to exploit the opponents’ “certain vulnerability to counterattacks”.
Before the start: “Emre was a very good substitution, he is one of our fastest players in the squad, especially in the defensive area,” Nagelsmann explained his personnel decision in the defensive midfield against the offensively strong Spaniards on MagentaTV: “His job is to support the defensive line and we are a bit more variable because he has played in a three-man defense more often.”
Before the start: Compared to the round of 16, the national coach has rotated two positions: In central defence, Tah returns to the starting line-up after his yellow card suspension, and Can surprisingly moves into the starting eleven and replaces Andrich in defensive midfield alongside Kroos. In attack, Sané is again preferred over Wirtz.
