Germany are supposed to be rebuilding after their dreadful World Cup, but Joachim Low has seen his team fail to up their game. Their only win since that loss to South Korea was a 2-1 victory over Peru last month. Losing to the Dutch has put them in danger of dropping out of the top tier of the Nations League, and that would be a worrying development for Low. Not only would his reputation take another hit, but their usually straightforward qualifying campaigns could now feature another European heavyweight, as relegation would likely impact their seeding for the qualifiers.
The Germans are wounded right now, but after their recent struggles they haven’t really shown any initiative to turn things around. They’ve claimed just three wins in their last 12 internationals, and that dreadful run is set to continue this week, ahead of this trip to the French. The hosts are in an entirely different position, going from strength to strength after their World Cup triumph. They were still celebrating their World Cup win last month, and they could have even more to shout about after this game.
