The team of national coach Antonio di Salvo starts strongly and plays a big lead. But then a turbulent second half of the game develops.
Second game, second victory for the German U21 national team at the European Championship in Slovakia. The team of national coach Antonio di Salvo won 4: 2 (2-0) against the Czech Republic on Sunday evening. This means that the DFB team is in the quarter-finals of the tournament prematurely. There will be against Spain or Italy next weekend.
Nicolo Tresoldi (34th), Paul Nebel (41.), Nick Woltemade (54.) and Eric Martel (59.) met for the German team before it became exciting again by a own goal of Bright Arrey-BM (61.) and a goal by Karel Spacil (67.).
Two years after the 1: 2 in the event of the European Championship in Georgia, the two opponents fought a highly entertaining game when reunited, in which Freiburg goalkeeper Noah Atubolu presented himself as a safe backing at a long-range shot by Patrik Vydra (32nd). He was powerless later with the goals.
Germany took control more and more in the first round. When Tresoldi, who had shone in game one as a valuable encouragement for the triple goal scorer Woltemade, took the lead, national coach Antonio di Salvo screamed out loudly.
Fog had seen the calling Frankfurt Namdi Collins on the wing, who played the ball in the middle. There, the previous Hannover professional Tresoldi in goal scorer manner completed 1-0. The 2-0 fog itself. Woltemade, who was always closely guarded and intensely pricked, shook his shadow and put back on fog with a lot of overview. In the tenth U21 game, he cheered his first goal. In added time, a shot from wing colleague Brajan Gruda banged on the post.
After the break, Woltemade headed to his fourth tournament gate after preparatory work by Rocco Reitz. At 4: 0 by Martel, he earned an assist again when he had switched the fastest after a Gruda shot.
Before the German team sent another sign of strength to the competition as the title candidate, the spectators experienced two curious scenes. First the game was interrupted so that a bird that could no longer be able to fly could be brought off (read more about this here). Then Woltemades shoe referee Alexis Herrera (Venezuela). However, the Stuttgart cup winner was fouled during the campaign and couldn’t help it.
