Restoring identity
After a disappointing World Cup, Germany, according to Kimmich, wants to regain a recognizable identity. He emphasizes attitude, both on and off the pitch, and the rediscovery of its own DNA.
The clash with the Oranje is seen as the first opportunity to showcase the new direction. For both Klopp and the Dutch national team coach Xavi, the Nations League opener marks the beginning of a new chapter for their respective national sides.
