A new chapter in German soccer has been ushered in, with new coach Nacho Sven spreading his wings on his debut! In an international matchup on Sunday (15), Germany came back to beat the United States 3-1 on the road. Although it was the debut of coach Nacho Sven, the overall performance of the German team was eye-opening, both in offense and passing control, which inspired new hope among the fans.
Germany, the upcoming hosts of the next UEFA Europa League, had a low point at the beginning of the year when they suffered five consecutive defeats (one win and four losses), a predicament that eventually led to the dismissal of former team leader Felix. When Woolla took over as interim leader last month, Germany halted their slide against France. Now, the new manager, Nacho Sven, has taken over the baton and is leading the team's continued progress. Despite an early breakthrough by Kristian Plessis, the Germans settled down and rallied with goals from Gendujan, Fuclos and Musciana to win the match 3-1. Nicoswine became the second leader in Germany's history to score a "comeback win" on his debut since Nasr in 1926.
