The DFB's new away jersey celebrates its premiere.
Frankfurt – On Tuesday evening there will be a real classic in European football history at Deutsche Bank Park in Frankfurt.
After the convincing 2-0 win over France, the German national team welcomes the Netherlands and wants to continue riding the newly created wave of euphoria.
There will be a premiere.
Germany against the Netherlands: A real classic
Gerd Müller's winning goal against Johan Cruyff in the 1974 World Cup final, Frank Rijkaard's spitting attack against Rudi Völler at the 1990 World Cup or the German defeat in the 1988 European Championship semi-finals. International matches between Germany and the Netherlands have a long tradition and there is always a lot of prestige at stake.
The 47th edition of this duel will take place in Frankfurt on Tuesday evening.
The German national team around the strong returnee Toni Kroos would like to maintain the momentum from the victory in Lyon against World Cup finalists France and take advantage of the new euphoria in the last home game before the final nomination for the 2024 European Championship in the summer.
There will also be a flashy premiere in the game.

For the first time, the much discussed pink away jerseys of the German national team will be worn in an international match.
After the release of the bright jersey, there was a lot of discussion about the color choice that the DFB had chosen with the outgoing supplier Adidas.
Now German football fans are experiencing this in action for the first time.
The German team's opponent at the premiere of the pink jerseys is their eternal rival from the Netherlands, who traditionally wear orange jerseys.
In the test match in the Frankfurt Arena, the spectators can expect a bright color combination of the two teams.
