Joachim Löw experienced a sad end as a national coach.

He is responsible for this himself.

He's leaving a national team full of construction sites, comments Patrick Mayer.

Joachim Löw made a perplexed impression.

The deserved end at the European Football Championship in 2021 through the defeat of Germany in the round of 16 against England (0: 2) was a sad final act after 15 years as national coach.

“It didn't look like a sworn unit was on the field.

There was no spark, "said ARD expert and U21 national coach Stefan Kuntz clearly and said:" We can discuss the chain of three. "

Joachim Löw fails as national coach with Germany at the EM 2021

That did the round in the ARD and made that three-way chain as a major weak point at the European championship.

"It is frustrating.

We made the same mistakes in all four games, ”said national goalkeeper Almuth Schult.

In fact, said “Högschd” prone chain of three documents the whole stubbornness of Joachim Löw.

With this he has not only done his legacy after winning the 2014 World Cup, but also has done German football no favors.

He just didn't want to make room for a new beginning, now the 61-year-old has received a very bitter exit as a receipt.

A look back: Immediately after the semi-final of the German national team at the EM 2016 against France (0: 2), the then ZDF expert Oliver Kahn (now FC Bayern) talked shop that the time had come for Löw's departure as national coach .

Much of what Löw did in his job over the next five years (!) Was no less destructive.

The resignation of Thomas Müller, Mats Hummels and Jerome Boateng in the meantime is an example.

Even in 2018, after a disastrous World Cup, he just didn't want to quit.

Covered by a divided German Football Association (DFB), he continued.

He stubbornly stood in the way of new impulses, innovations and possible alternatives.

Progress could no longer be seen.

The upheaval, which ultimately did not exist, served as a constant excuse.

Instead, Löw ignored players who many wanted to see in the national team.

And his changes during international matches have not been revealed to the critical observer for a long time.

The best news of the failure in London is that Löw is now being replaced by his former assistant Hansi Flick.
