Klopp praises German counterattack as the Oranje celebrates 7-0 win

The Dutch national team recorded a 7‑0 victory over Greece in the Nations League last night, while Germany will play the final group match against Orange on Monday evening.

Die Mannschaft had previously beaten Serbia and national team coach Jürgen Klopp said after the press conference: “We played an excellent match. Of course we could have scored more goals, but that doesn’t really matter. It was fantastic on many fronts, the Gegenpressing was, for example, excellent.”

Klopp admitted that the start of the second half was less smooth, but added that Brajan Gruda restored the tempo.

He warned that a victory over Orange would virtually guarantee progression to the next Nations League round and said: “We wanted a final in Berlin and we have gotten it. We want to show the world that German football is in good hands.”

Finally, Klopp noted that he had not seen the Dutch match, but knows the result: “They will undoubtedly have a lot of confidence.”
