Germany's Fragile Defense Weighs On Coach Julian Nagelsmann

By IANS News October 08, 2025 • 00:12 AM View: 169

FIFA World Cup: Ahead of Germany's 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers against Luxembourg and Northern Ireland, national coach Julian Nagelsmann has been forced into unexpected roster changes due to a mounting defensive crisis.

The Germans have kept a clean sheet in only seven of their last 25 games. A disappointing 2-0 loss to Slovakia ignited a debate about the coach's constant tactical changes.

The return of Borussia Dortmund defender Nico Schlotterbeck is a headline development. The 25-year-old is needed to stabilise a wavering defense but only recently returned from a months-long absence with a significant knee injury, reports Xinhua.
