The 2006 World Cup is a turning point for German football, and Jürgen Klinsmann is always considered the founder of change. However, saddled with the new German football, criticized for the new German football, is the target for the attackers when the new German football defeat, only Joachim Low. Therefore, the new German football is no different from his life, the work of his life.
What is Germany's "bravery"?
Is the cold in the gun battle series. The spirit of immortal when playing 10 people still like 11 people. It is a flame of fire fighting until the end of the game does not let go.
This is true.
But we often take the example of Lahm, like Bastian Schweinsteiger, ... to suggest that the origin of that mastery comes from the dedication to football, perhaps should be reconsidered.
Germany has a miniature of Bayern Munich, and Bayern Munich is nicknamed Hollywood FC, a collection of stars. The story of the power of the stars in Bayern Munich from the past is no longer strange. But the star here is not like in England, is alcohol, calves. Which is the German star, the strong personality, pride, arrogant. And look at the picture of the German players, it is the arrogance that creates a bravery for Die Mannschaft, the prestige of the class people. As Matthäus, as Kahn, as Ballack, as Neuer, ...
So whether shabby or elegant, whether hot as fire or soft competition, the bravery of Germany still derives from the personality. And depending on the personality, personal ambition remains a constant concern.
Germany has stories of Lothar Matthaus attending five World Cups. There Klose with four consecutive World Cup goals scored. With Schweinsteiger, Podolski ready to fire even though he only played the role of the fulcrum in major tournaments later. These are the players, not to discuss ambition, inside them is the consecration.
But Schweinsteiger's generation, Podolski still has Lahm, ready to split the team in the age of 30 after winning the World Cup. The legend was Gerd Muller, splitting his shirt after the 1974 gold trophy. These are individuals who represent just the ambition and know the end of themselves.
And Germany in the 2018 World Cup is a delegate to a team lacking ambition. That squad two years ago, there have been signs of failure after Euro defeat in France. But thanks to the victory over Italy, everything seems to have been dismissed.
Joachim Low had a new German generation after the failed Euro. A youthful team won easily in the Confederations Cup in 2017. And this collective also contributed a lot in the 2018 World Cup qualifying campaign with the victory. Yet, in the three rounds, he used the same framework two years ago, or even four years ago.
The bravery is still there, the dedication is still there. But only scattered in some individuals. The rest is the lack of vitality from the former, because of age as well as ambition is no longer. Then some young factors are completely lost when there are no directions.
Joachim Low once believed in Lahm, into the Schweinsteiger, into Podolski. But those are the people who fail in their careers. It burned them in the flames of victory until the World Cup four years ago. And the veterans now, is there any reason for them to keep the fire that victory?
Says Low conservative is also true. Low say arrogance is not wrong. But the writer wants to use the word "news". He put his trust in the wrong place. And it's like butterfly effect. Push the German team into a total failure.
His chair would shake a little after this failure. But, before the World Cup, his contract was extended until 2022, a move that showed the League still believed and put much hope in him.
And the writer still believes in him, that he will learn to draw lessons from this summer, so that he is stronger in his decisions.
