England versus Germany at Wembley Stadium!
In the big tournaments there were often penalty shootouts, which is why Jogi Löw has apparently already determined his five shooters.
Munich / London - In England the names Chris Waddle and Gareth Southgate are on the index - at least when it comes to football and Germany.
Waddle was the tragic figure at the 1990 World Cup when he hit the last penalty in the Milanese night sky.
Southgate, current coach of the Three Lions, failed in 1996 at the home European championships for the English against Andreas Köpke.
Penalty shootouts and England - they just don't go together.
Will it also be a drama at the 2021 European Football Championship *?
According to the
picture
, Joachim Löw
has already committed to his five shooters, provided that they are still on the field in the event of a penalty shoot-out
so that the DFB team will come off the pitch again as the winner in a possible penalty shootout
.
If the decisive penalty shoot-out happens after 120 minutes, these five shooters should shoot us into the EM quarter-finals!
Germany versus England: The five shooters of the DFB team
1. Toni Kroos
2. Thomas Müller
3. Joshua Kimmich
4. Leon Goretzka
5. Kai Havertz
Should one or the other of the five boys have already been replaced, allegedly İlkay Gündoğan, Marcel Halstenberg and Matthias Ginter would be available as "successors".

The big preview
Another reason why the DFB team would be favorites in a possible penalty shoot-out is that Manuel Neuer is in goal.
He has - not really surprising - the better penalty rate compared to his counterpart Jordan Pickford.
While the FCB goalkeeper saved 32 of 121 penalties and thus came to a value of 26.4 percent saved penalties, Everton goalkeeper Pickford can only fend off 23.5 percent of the shots from eleven meters (12 of 51).
Neuer will definitely be in the box against the British. There was recently a question mark behind Robin Gosens and Antonio Rüdiger, but both should be fit for the knockout round of the last 16. The situation is apparently different with Gündoğan, who still has problems after a bruised skull.
