The German national football team loses the game for third place in the Nations League against France – the presses.
“Le Figaro”: “A smile and a little ease at the end of the season. Didier Deschamps and his troops had previously signed to experience these emotions in the small final of the Nations League. The French team won against Germany (0: 2), which was not exactly sparkling with fame.
“L’équipe”: “The French national team did not have to play well to lead 1-0 in Germany. The late goal by Kylian Mbappé (45th), the 50th of his international career, did not reward the slightest pressure moment of Les Bleus nor the tireless activity of the captain of the French national team. (…) The second half showed a completely different picture: In vain to build something, there was no ideas and talent, while the French were constantly dangerous in the switchover game.
“Le Parisien”: When Les Bleus know why they lost to Spain (4: 5) on Thursday, it is not certain whether they will understand why they won against Germany (2-0) on Sunday. After being swept away by the Harlem Globetrotter of the game, they conquered third place in the Nations League with talent and good luck. In irrational and spectacular way, a magical combo. “
Spanish media: “Disappointment in the eyes of Nagelsmann and Ter Stegen”
Mundo Deportivo: “In an exciting game for Germany and France, which was not about a title, the French team won 2-0 on Sunday in Stuttgart and secured third place in the Nations League. This is thanks missed. “
“La Vanguardia”: “Mbappé’s instinct defeats Ter Stegens Germany in the consolation finale. Tentative applause from Kylian Mbappé and Deschamps. And the disappointment in the eyes of Nagelsmann and Ter Stegen after they lost the small finale of the rather weak consolation.”
“Marca”: “Mbappé continues its shape and sinks Germany. Mbappé made the difference.
