All 26 nominees are available to national coach Hansi Flick ahead of what will probably be the deciding group game against Spain (Sunday, 8:00 p.m.). Vote now in the big sport.de voting: Who belongs in the starting XI? Who has to go to the bank?
In order to make the 2-1 defeat against Japan forget and to keep chances for the round of 16, the German national team has to win the second World Cup group game against Spain almost inevitably.
The recently injured Leroy Sané is also expected to be available again for the DFB-Elf. Flick is spoiled for choice before the game at Al Bayt Stadium.
Before the World Cup game between the German national team and the 2010 world champions, we want to know: Which eleven national players would you like to see in the starting line-up? On the other hand, who belongs on the bench?
sport.de then publishes the results of the survey and selects the fans’ favorite DFB team.
“We don’t have a free shot anymore. We missed the shot against Japan,” said national coach Hansi Flick after the embarrassment at the start of the World Cup in Qatar.
BVB duo still in defense, Goretzka next to Kimmich?
It was a veritable oath of revelation that the German national team took last Wednesday against efficient Japanese. Offensively too harmless and without the necessary qualities in goal closure, defensively holey and not suitable for the World Cup.
There should be some changes in the DFB starting eleven in the second group game. In particular, the performance of the two BVB stars Nico Schlotterbeck and Niklas Süle, who were involved in both goals conceded, was criticized after the opening game.

But the filling of the six position is also hotly debated. Who plays next to Joshua Kimmich from FC Bayern? Will Ilkay Gündogan start again or will Leon Goretzka make his first start at this World Cup?
And the position of the centre-forward should also be filled against Spain. Kai Havertz did not recommend himself for a new starting place. With the return of Leroy Sané, Thomas Müller could move into the top storm.
