237 days before the World Cup kicks off, the German national team will face their first major test on the way to Qatar. After eight wins in eight games, the Netherlands are the next opponents.
Germany versus the Netherlands – that’s always exciting and explosive. Eight months before the start of the World Cup in Qatar, the German national team is about to take an important position in Amsterdam on Tuesday. The Oranje team is the first well-known opponent for Hansi Flick. The 57-year-old is particularly looking forward to seeing Louis van Gaal again, the Elftal coach who, like the national coach, has a Munich background.
Flick doesn’t care about his impressive winning streak of eight wins in eight games. The Netherlands are the opponents the national coach has longed for, against whom one can simulate a World Cup emergency. Romania, Iceland, North Macedonia, Israel and Liechtenstein and Armenia twice each were certainly not. Nevertheless, Flick naturally also wants to win in Amsterdam. The 57-year-old knows that success at the Johan Cruyff Arena would give Qatar a good boost. Every win they achieve “gives us even more confidence in our own strength. And that’s what we need,” said Flick.
