The Mannschaft have failed again in a major competition, and their elimination in the round of 16 of Euro 2020 spells the death knell for their coach, Joachim Löw.

His successor Hansi Flick will have the task of rebuilding his team before the next big European meeting, in 2024 in Germany.

A sad end to the cycle for the emblematic coach of Germany. Joachim Löw, in office since 2006, leaves the German selection after two last setbacks (first round at the 2018 World Cup and round of 16 at Euro 2020). The disappointing end of fifteen years yet accomplished, punctuated by six appearances in the last four of a major competition until 2016, and of course the world title in 2014. But the elimination of the Mannschaft against England at the Euro 2020 (0-2), with tactical choices questioned, throws German football into uncertainty. It is Hansi Flick, former assistant to Joachim Löw between 2006 and 2014, that returns to the task of replacing the German selection among the best in the world, from the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

The end of the adventure for executives?

The first question that the future coach of the Mannschaft will have to raise concerns the world champion executives, in delicacy during the Euro.

The symbol being the failure of the striker Thomas Müller who could have equalized against England at the end of the game.

If the iconic goalkeeper Manuel Neuer (35) should continue at least until 2022, the question remains for Müller, playmaker Toni Kroos and defender Mats Hummels, who scored against his camp against France (0 -1).

The second question lies in the state of mind of the selection, which has not convinced observers.

"I did not see this ambition, this will, this fighting spirit", tackle Lukas Podolski, also 2014 world champion and consultant during the Euro.

"It was all a little hopeless, when you see the faces of the players, nothing is happening."

Hope Hansi Flick

The former Bayern Munich coach will therefore have his work cut out for him to get the Mannschaft back on track, especially during qualifying for the 2022 World Cup, during which Germany lost important points last March against Macedonia. of the North (defeat 2-1). Hansi Flick can count on his impressive success on the bench for the Bavarian club, where he won seven titles in two seasons, including the 2020 Champions League, to have the support of German supporters, who have been on the sidelines for a few years with Joachim Löw. The former coach also knows the internationals who play in Munich (Joshua Kimmich, Leon Goretzka, Serge Gnabry ...) and the young people he has launched, like midfielder Jamal Musiala (18).

"We have young players who are going to learn from this experience," said Joachim Löw on Wednesday evening, whose hard work in selection will serve Hansi Flick. "They are going to make great progress in the next two or three years, and Euro 2024 will be the peak of their careers. We can expect great things from them." A future European Championship crucial for the Mannschaft, since they will play it at home, in Germany. The arrival of the former Bayern coach will be smooth with three qualifying matches for the 2022 World Cup in early September against Liechtenstein, Armenia and Iceland. History of relaunching Germany to the heights of football.
