A Swiss newspaper attacked Jogi Löw with harsh words.
Does the world champion national coach stay in the fans' minds after his departure because of other actions?
Munich / Zurich - There is no question that national coach Joachim Löw * has not done everything right in the past three years.
The last average appearances of the DFB team before the start of the EM * caused ridicule, especially from Switzerland there were critical words.
The news portal
Blick.ch
looked maliciously at the football neighbor and attacked the man who began his coaching career in Switzerland.
EM 2021: Swiss press takes national coach Löw into trouble - "his authority has long been undermined"
Joachim Löw ended his playing career * here in the mid-1990s, coached the youth at FC Winterthur and took over as player-coach at FC Frauenfeld in the summer of 1994. It should be the starting shot for a great coaching career that drew him to the DFB in the summer of 2004. After the European Championship in 2021, an era is coming to an end for the 61-year-old after 15 years as national coach.
Even before the opening bankruptcy against the French, Blick.ch went tough with Löw.
“He stands in Munich as a 'lame duck' on the sidelines.
His authority has long been undermined, ”writes the daily newspaper's online portal.
In particular, the "sobering results", such as the defeat against North Macedonia or the draw against the Danes as well as the interrupted generation change, is chalked up to him - and then it even goes one step further.
EM 2021: Swiss newspaper railed against Jogi Löw - will he be remembered for "scratching his waistband"?
"For once he didn't scratch his pants, but instead scratched his head for a long time and then, with Mats Hummels and Thomas Müller, brought back two players who had actually been retired as new and old bellhammers, respectively," says
Blick.ch
.
An allusion to the strange handles in the pants during a game at the EM 2016, especially on the net, the scene was a laugh.

Should Löw succeed in the pan-European tournament "miraculous", he would, according to the article, "go down in German football history as a world champion and figurehead".
If the DFB * team were to fail in the preliminary round, as in 2018 in Russia, this could have further damage to its image.
"Then his scratching on the waistband with subsequent nose picking will be more likely to be remembered", so the merciless formulation of the portal.
In fact, especially after the defeat against France, the German team is not necessarily credited with the big success at the tournament.
Löw still has two games to convince his critics.
