'Klopp era is not getting going': press comments on the DFB team

Greece

“Ta Nea”: “An important point for the national team, they remain undefeated in their group and dream of the quarter-finals!”

“Kathimerini”: “The national team won a valuable 0-0 draw against Germany.”

France

"L'Équipe": "Jürgen Klopp's Germany lacked imagination and couldn't get beyond a draw in Greece. Dominant in the first half, but sluggish in the second."

Spain

"Marca": "Klopp emphasizes that now is the time for experiments. But so far his Germany is not really getting going."

“Mundo Deportivo”: “Jürgen Klopp’s team, which faced Greece with a completely different line-up than a week ago, had learned from their defeat and dominated from the start, but their plan gradually failed.”

“As”: “The Klopp era is not getting going.”

"Blick": "Tough-as-nails Greeks are annoying Klopp again. Germany can't get past a 0-0 draw against Greece. The Greeks are backing up and defending themselves against the DFB stars with all their might."
