The German federation had the good idea of organizing a tour in the United States with a second match Tuesday evening for the Mannschaft and a return to Europe on Thursday morning.
For his debut at the head of the German national team, Julian Nagelsmann has the right to a “tour” on the East Coast of the United States, with two matches on the program. The Mannschaft, already winner of the Blues last month (2-1), beat Team USA (1-3) on Saturday in Connecticut, thanks to goals from Ilkay Gündogan (the team captain), Niclas Füllkrug and Jamal Musiala.
The Germans, who will play Euro 2024 at home, continue with a match against Mexico, but the German federation was unable to schedule the meeting on Monday afternoon. The selection will play Tuesday evening in Philadelphia, with a kickoff at 2 a.m. on the night of Tuesday to Wednesday in Germany. A choice that raises eyebrows in the Bundesliga, while the return of the German delegation is scheduled for Thursday morning!
Dortmund can particularly cry foul. BVB resumes competition on Friday evening against Werder Bremen, a few days before challenging Newcastle, in a week in the Champions League. The German vice-champion could repatriate Mats Hummels, Niklas Süle, Julian Brandt and Füllkrug by private plane following the match against Mexico.
Das war ein guter Start unter Julian Nagelsmann. 3:1 Sieg über die USA 👍🏼🇩🇪 Jetzt müssen wir gegen Mexiko nachlegen 💪 #esmuellert #dfbteam #USER pic.twitter.com/BLaZcyhSZT
