Germany: a failed debut, Jürgen Klopp remains positive

24.09.26 FT UEFA Nations League A

Netherlands

Germany

Despite Thursday evening's draw against the Netherlands, Germany coach Jürgen Klopp wants to remain very positive.

In his first match as Germany coach, Jürgen Klopp saw his players share the points with the Netherlands (1-1) on Thursday in the Nations League. With this result, the former Liverpool coach is aware that he will need time to impose his style. The German coach preferred to focus on the positives.

"I would have really liked to win, but I don't feel that the Dutch equaliser was undeserved. It was a fantastic goal. The most important thing for me, regardless of the fact that we failed to hold on to our lead, is all the other information we got from this match. That is what we are going to work on. There were negative points, but also a lot of positives," the German coach said at a press conference.

"They’ll probably be unavailable for us, but hopefully they can return relatively quickly."
