Is Loew thinking again? Line-up cracker around Bayern dribbler suggests itself

It is one of the big highlights of the EM 2021: Germany against France.

National coach Joachim Löw has probably rescheduled in the line-up.

Munich - here we go!

Germany will meet France on Tuesday at the start of the EM 2021.

The 2014 world champion against the 2018 world champion, absolute top players on both sides, a great shared history - this game is one of the early highlights of the tournament.

And possibly decisive, because: In Hammer Group F, any loss of points can mean an early end.

The German national team, in particular, is not particularly enthusiastic about such a scenario: After all, they embarrassed themselves at the 2018 World Cup with their early departure.

EM 2021: Germany against France - line-up for the opening game?

Therefore, the foundation stone for a successful European championship should be laid against the fantastic French around super kicker Kylian Mbappé. And the DFB selection doesn’t have to hide. Because there is also enormous quality in the German squad: With Manuel Neuer, Joshua Kimmich, Niklas Süle, Leon Goretzka, Serge Gnabry and Thomas Müller, Jogi Löw has nominated six players who have won the Champions League in 2020 - three more come from the reigning premier class New winners from London: Kai Havertz, Timo Werner and Antonio Rüdiger. The only question is: How does the national coach manage to combine as much skill as possible?

The big point of contention before this EM was: Does Joshua Kimmich play in the central defensive midfield or on the right wing?

The decision has been made - at least for the first game: Kimmich will probably start on the right.

Löw tested the scenario in the final test match against Latvia.

There Toni Kroos and Ilkay Gündogan formed the central midfield.

Both are at home in the world class, as is Kimmich.

EM 2021: Löw maneuver for France game?

Sané probably displaces Havertz from the Germany line-up

Recently, it had also been indicated that Kai Havertz would start in the offensive row of three alongside Thomas Müller and Serge Gnabry.

But then a day before the start of the European Championship a Löw maneuver emerged!

According to the

picture

, he had Leroy Sané play in the starting eleven in the last training game before the duel in France - Havertz was part of the reserve team.

So why do the rethinking?

Most likely, the French will take the reins first and have a lot of possession.

Germany hopes for ball conquests and quick counterattacks.

Speed ​​dribbler Sané would have an advantage.

Probable DFB starting eleven against France: Neuer - Ginter, Hummels, Rüdiger - Kimmich, Gündogan, Kroos, Gosens - Gnabry, Müller, Sané.

We'll know more in a few hours!

Germany will meet France at 9 p.m. in Munich's Allianz Arena.
