Nagelsmann reveals: Kimmich celebrates 100th international match against Portugal!

München, Deutschland - The German national soccer team is intensively preparing for the Nation League semi-final against Portugal, which takes place on Wednesday at 9 p.m. in the Munich Allianz Arena. The game is transmitted live on ZDF and to DAZN. National coach Julian Nagelsmann has already set nine of the eleven starting eleven positions and gives fans a first insight into his plans. How Dewezet reports, captain Joshua Kimmich, goalkeeper Marc-André Ter Stegen and Leon Goretzka are already in the starting eleven. Kimmich will play his 100th international game in this game.

The situation around Florian Wirtz is also being followed particularly carefully. Despite the ongoing negotiations with Liverpool FC, Nagelsmann has confirmed that Wirtz is motivated and does not show any impairment through the transfer situation. He will probably also be in the starting eleven. However, a decision remains open to the storm question: Nagelsmann is still secret whether newcomer Nick Woltemade or Niclas Füllkrug from West Ham United will start. Woltemade trained well, while Füllkrug is also available again after his long injury. This is also reported Sportschau .

The German national team has achieved a significant milestone with this semi -finals: for the first time in eight years it is back in a semi -finals of a big tournament. The last title was won at the Confed Cup in 2017, and Leon Goretzka is combative by expressing the desire for another trophy. The big question remains whether the team can find the necessary level to pass Portugal and possibly move into the final on Sunday.

The other semi -finals will be held between Spain and France on Thursday. Germany is optimistic about the upcoming games and is determined to continue a successful Nation League campaign. After the players have been well in Nagelsmann, the fans hope to return to the fans. The success of the last Nation League games, including the group victory in the preliminary round, increased the team's confidence and awakened the anticipation for the upcoming challenges. The German national team should therefore go into the semi -finals and offer the fans exciting football moments, as they have been experienced in large international tournaments in the past, as on Wikipedia documented.
