Germany coach Julian Nagelsmann is keeping a tight lid on his squad ahead of Sunday’s Nations League semi-final second leg against Italy.
Julian Nagelsmann was unwilling to reveal too much about his Germany tactics or personnel changes ahead of the second leg of the Nations League quarter-final against Italy on Sunday, as he feels that would only serve as a benefit for Luciano Spalletti and the Azzurri: ‘I don’t want to give him this advantage’.
Italy trail 2-1 at the halfway stage of their Nations League quarter-final against Germany, but have an opportunity to turn things around at Signal Iduna Park in Dortmund on Sunday.
Germany hold the advantage after the first leg win at San Siro 2-1, with reports suggesting the team could make four changes in the second leg, but Nagelsmann declined to give details.
“Why should I say that? It สนใจสมัคร? คลิกที่นี่เพื่อเริ่มต้น doesn’t make sense. All I can say is that everyone is ready,” Nagelsmann said.
“You ask a lot of questions but I don’t want to say anything, especially because it will be easy for Spalletti and I don’t want him to have an advantage in this game – Goretzka will play, he scored and did well.”
Revealing that Goretzka will play did not come as too much of a surprise, given that he was sat next to the coach for the pre-match press conference. It is typical that a starter joins the coach for pre-match media duties.
