Germany’s rebuilding seems to be on the right track based on their recent performances in the Nations League. The four-time World Cup winners extended their unbeaten record to three matches with a convincing 2-1 win against Bosnia-Herzegovina, thanks to a brace from Denis Undav. The team, under coach Julian Nagelsmann, has shown promise despite the retirements of key players like Manuel Neuer and Toni Kroos.
In their previous matches, Germany also thrashed Hungary 5-0 and drew with the Netherlands 2-2, putting them at the top of their group. Despite missing some stalwarts, the German team displayed confidence, complex attacking moves, and a sense of enjoyment on the field. Their only downside in the recent match was a defensive lapse that allowed Edin Dzeko to score for Bosnia.
On the other hand, the Netherlands managed to salvage a late 1-1 draw against Hungary despite being reduced to 10 men. The Dutch had won all nine previous meetings with Hungary, but struggled to break through the resilient Hungarian defense. Meanwhile, Ukraine ended Georgia’s unbeaten record with a 1-0 victory, while the Czech Republic defeated Albania 2-0.
In other results, Iceland and Wales drew 2-2, Turkey defeated Montenegro 1-0, Estonia won against Azerbaijan 3-1, and Sweden drew with Slovakia 2-2. Overall, the latest Nations League matches have showcased some exciting games and surprising results, setting the stage for an intriguing competition ahead.
