BERLIN : It is difficult to complain about the growing number of matches footballers and clubs are required to play these days as the busy schedule drives revenues for the industry and pays the high salaries, Germany coach Julian Nagelsmann said on Friday.
LEIPZIG, Germany :Germany secured a place at next year's World Cup by crushing Slovakia 6-0 in their final qualifier on Monday, pummeling them into submission with four goals in the first half, and sending their opponents into a playoff in March.
So much for Germany being at risk of missing the World Cup.
LEIPZIG, Germany :Germany are not even considering the possibility of going into next year's 2026 World Cup qualification playoff when they host Slovakia in their final qualifier on Monday, with only victory on their minds, coach Julian Nagelsmann said on Sunday.
ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates: The United Arab Emirates and Iraq drew 1-1 Thursday in the first leg of their 2026 World Cup qualifying playoff in Abu Dhabi. The teams will travel to the Iraqi port city of Basra for Tuesday’s return match in the fifth round of Asian qualifying. The winner will then advance to FIFA’s intercontinental playoff round in March, when six teams from five confederations will compete for two spots at next summer’s expanded 48-team World Cup co-hosted by the United States, Canada and Mexico. In front of a sellout crowd of 36,000 at Mohammed Bin Zayed Stadium, Iraq — whose only World Cup appearance came in 1986 — took the lead after just 10 minutes. The UAE defense failed to clear a long free kick into the area, allowing the ball to drop to Ali Al-Hamadi. The Luton forward hooked home from close range to give Iraq, coached by former Australia manager Graham Arnold, a 1-0 lead. It lasted only eight minutes.
BERLIN: Germany coach Julian Nagelsmann on Thursday backed Newcastle striker Nick Woltemade to lead the line for his injury-hit side in their 2026 World Cup qualification bid. The Germans face Luxembourg away on Friday before returning home to take on Slovakia on Monday, with the latter match likely to determine who qualifies for the tournament directly. Woltemade, 23, has only played six games for Germany since making his debut in June. He scored the winner in October’s 1-0 victory over Northern Ireland, his first Germany goal. “Right now he’s super important because we’ve got a few players out injured in that position and because he’s a very good player,” Nagelsmann said. “He’s in high demand for us right now because he’s doing well, he’s important in pressing, in holding onto the ball and in scoring goals.” The 1.98-meter tall Woltemade hit the ground running in England after moving to Newcastle in the summer, scoring in four of his first five Premier League games. “He’s scored several times already.
WOLFSBURG, Germany :Germany fullback David Raum has grown into a key player for the national team looking to confirm their World Cup qualification but he is happy to leave the spotlight to more talented teammates, he said on Tuesday.
