The match against South Korea will already be the first knockout game for the DFB selection. In the new episode of “FE:male view on football”, ex-national keeper Almuth Schult explains what kind of game the German team has to prepare for – and why a change could be helpful.
After the 1:2 against Colombia, the euphoria in the German camp is subdued – and against South Korea on Thursday, they have to score in order to avoid having to pull out of the group stage. Almuth Schult explains in the new World Cup special of “FE:male view on football” how this could be achieved against the still pointless Asians and why she favours a change of system.
In an interview with hosts Anna-Sara Lange and Turid Knaak, Schult looks back at the game against Colombia, analyses why Germany’s attacking play temporarily flagged – and what measures need to be taken now to remedy it.
In addition, the situation with opponents South Korea and their coach Colin Bell, who is well known in Germany, is examined in detail – and Schult explains why the atmosphere in Australia is unfamiliar for some German players – and who she has on her mind as tournament favourites.
