Greece keeps Germany to zero in the World Cup qualifier

GreeceGermanyworld cup qualification

Quick Look

Greece drew 0-0 with Germany in their World Cup qualifier in Thessaloniki, despite an early corner and loud support from thousands of fans in the aging stadium.

AI-generated summary

Why It Matters

Germany had been defeated 1-0 seven days earlier and is four-time world champion.

Font size

Once again the entire stadium in Thessaloniki seemed to roar, thousands of throats producing a shrill sound and causing the old walls from the 1950s to rattle and shake. There was only a mundane corner kick for Greece to celebrate at that moment, but the real reason for the party was written on the scoreboard: “Greece 0, Germany: 0”. Not a bad result against a four-time world champion who had even been defeated 1-0 seven days earlier.

Open Questions

  • How will Greece fare in the remaining qualifiers?
  • What tactical adjustments will Germany make?

Despite a disallowed goal against Greece, the team showed improved counter-pressing and tactical discipline. Klopp relied on an experienced midfield and only changed three positions from the win over Serbia. The discussion about Joshua Kimmich as captain is expected to continue.

Klopp remains winless against Greece with the German national team

The German national soccer team under Jürgen Klopp played 0-0 against Greece in Thessaloniki and thus missed their second victory in the Nations League. After a 1-0 defeat in Augsburg a week earlier, they only have five points from four games, third place in Group 2 behind the Netherlands and Greece. Burkardt's supposed debut goal was taken back by VAR, Urbig made a spectacular reflex save. Games in Serbia and Berlin against the Netherlands follow in mid-November.
