After the draw in Switzerland, Ilkay Gündogan struggled with the performance of the German national team - and chose drastic words.

Now the factual processing follows.

  • Nations League:

    After a weak second half in

    Switzerland, Germany

    does not get beyond 1-1 and remains in the competition in the sixth game without a win.

  • Ex-Bayern star Toni Kroos

    (Real Madrid) is clearly criticizing,

    Ex-BVB professional Ilkay Gündogan

    (Manchester City) really

    hits

    it.

    But the latter is now appeasing - and sending an appeal regarding ghost games.

  • National coach Joachim Löw is also dissatisfied - there are

    voices on the game in Basel

    .

Update from September 8, 9:38 a.m.:

Ilkay Gündogan spoke

about his drastic words on

ZDF (see below)

after the disappointing 1: 1 of the DFB selection in the

Nations League duel

in Switzerland.

“I was so upset, especially about the second half, that I had to let off some steam in the interview,” the

ManCity star

told

Bild

.

So shortly after the final whistle, the game was still very emotional for the German national player.

“We made things too easy for Switzerland as a team,” said the midfielder.

When asked

about the

quality

issue, Ilkay Gündogan sees no problems: “We are all under contract with top clubs.

The criticism was also not directed against individual players.

We have to

solve this better collectively

- I don't pretend to be.

With two points from two games, none of us are happy. "Ex-Dortmund Gündogan demands that

" the advantage of easy-to-understand communication when we play without a spectator, but then also better "is used

in

ghost games

.

There was also trouble with the DFB team after the match in Switzerland because of another thing: the flight from Stuttgart to Basel:

DFB team in the Nations League crisis: Gündogan with angry speech in front of the camera

Original article from September 6th:

Germany is

standing still in the

Nations League

.

Even in the sixth international match in the new competition there is no victory.

In

Switzerland

, the

DFB team

can't go beyond 1-1 after a poor performance.

Toni Kroos

becomes clear after the flattering draw,

Ilkay Gündogan makes

a downright

angry speech

.

And national

coach Joachim Loew

sees decisive shortcomings in the German national team.

We have summarized the votes from ZDF:

Ilkay Gündogan (Germany scorer): "I'm still a little pissed off"

... about the given victory in Switzerland:

“That was completely up to us. I'm still a little pissed off.

This was already indicated in the first half.

We lost the balls at the front too easily.

This is exactly how the goal is conceded.

We secured the ball and played a bad pass without any problems.

A goal like that just throws us back.

Before that, we are in a really good starting position, we don't let anything go wrong.

It was already indicated in the first half that we would gamble away everything with such a bad pass. " 

... about his mood after the game:

“Overall, that's annoying.

That pisses me off.

It's not a process, it's a normal football game.

That can't happen at this level.

It was totally unnecessary in my opinion.

We didn't do well against Spain in the second half.

We should have played it through in the second half, we could do three or four stalls. "

💬 @IlkayGuendogan: "We lost balls unnecessarily. After 1-1 it was difficult. Overall, it's very annoying and I'm dissatisfied."

Toni Kroos (Germany): "That is disappointing"

... about Germany's game against Switzerland

: “Unfortunately, it was similar to that against Spain.

We can definitely work on it, we have to have more solutions and more self-confidence as a team.

But this was also due to the fact that they had not yet worked together in this constellation.

We had way too many ball losses up front.

If you only get two out of six points, that's disappointing.

Today we should have done better at the back. "

💬 @ToniKroos: "We had way too many ball losses. You saw that when we conceded. If six points are to be distributed and you only get two, that's disappointing."

Joachim Löw (national coach Germany): "We just can't do it ..."

... about the reasons for the missed victory in the Nations League:

“We failed to make it 2-0 again.

Similar to the Spanish.

We just don't manage to capitalize on the good opportunities.

We let the Swiss get back into the game by losing the ball. "

... about the angry Ilkay Gündogan

: “I certainly do too.

If you lead 1-0 twice and don't bring it home, that's annoying.

Some players were missing, we will attack properly again in October.

Not all players were in full possession of their powers.

The problem we have is that we don't make the decision. "

... about the equalization through Switzerland:

“We got out of the rhythm.

We had two or three big chances in the first half.

I knew it wasn't going to be an easy story.

The guys gave everything they could.

The guys threw everything in, played a good pressing in the first half.

We will attack properly again in October. "

💬 Joachim # Löw: "We failed to score the second goal after we scored 1-0. That would have given us security. The draw is okay."

Julian Draxler (Germany): "We slacked off extremely in the second half"

... about the game of the German national team:

“That wasn't our best game today.

We lost quite a lot of the ball, we didn't manage to get the balls on, and we lost a lot in the second half.

In terms of points, that's not enough.

We are not 100% satisfied with the way we play. "

Silvan Widmer (Switzerland goalscorer): "An evening that I won't forget anytime soon"

... about the game against Germany:

“In the end we had one or two more chances than Germany.

It was a hard-fought game and both teams wanted to win.

After the defeat on Thursday we wanted to show a reaction and we succeeded.

Today we went into the pits more consistently and attacked our opponent more aggressively.

This is sure to be an evening that I won't forget anytime soon. "

Granit Xhaka (Captain Switzerland): "They were surprisingly not that strong"

... about the draw against the DFB team:

“Surprisingly, they weren't as strong as usual. But you have to pay us a compliment too.

We tried to press a lot higher.

The result speaks for us.

We have a very good team with a great future.

We want to stand up to teams like Germany. ”(Pm)
