Love Pulse Posted September 7, 2019 Posted September 7, 2019 Germany coach Joachim Loew said the Manchusvale team had performed poorly in their 2-4 defeat at home to the Dutch in the Euro 2020 Group C qualifier. The Netherlands fell 2-2 at home to Germany in March, before reconsidering them in a similar way, on Friday, in Hamburg. The Netherlands revived their hopes of qualifying for the continental finals next year, knowing that the team 'orange' missed the last two major tournaments in Europe in 2016 and in the World Cup Russia 2018. Germany have had young faces in recent months, replacing the old ones after a humiliating exit from the first round of the World Cup and the loss of the German title at the 2014 World Cup in Brazil. Loew said after the game: "We were disappointed by the result, but it makes sense, the Netherlands was the best team. We played without our technical level, we lost a lot of balls, and we did not build (attacks and passes) as we wanted." "This allowed the Netherlands to improve their performance and put pressure on us," he said, adding that the Dutch squad under Ronald Koeman had been playing with each other for two or three years. ". "The Germans were more tired in the second half, and they weren't as good as they were in the first half," Koman said. "We made some mistakes and this justifies the opening of the German team, but we have simply done more to find a win," he said. Loew said he hoped his players would "react to the two" when they were guests of the Northern Ireland team in Belfast, saying that Germany "must win their next game ... This is very important for us."
