Coach Nagelsmann acts like King Charles III, sends special message to German fans

With a beautiful attacking style, the German team affirmed its position as the host country of EURO 2024 by topping Group A. Coach Nagelsmann's students have 7 points, are unbeaten and have scored 8 goals. "The Tanks" are also the team that scored the most goals in the group stage of EURO 2024. Notably, in the opening match against Scotland, the German team won 5-1. This is the biggest win that a host team has ever had in EURO history.

The impressive performance and determined fighting spirit of the German team captivated millions of home fans. A festive, colorful atmosphere continuously appeared on the streets of Germany. Before each match of the home team, millions of fans also took to the streets to parade, sing and cheer to encourage the players.

The German team is giving home fans special emotions.

In particular, the German team's base - Herzogenaurach - is always "visited" by fans. This 1,400 m2 area is fenced off by high walls and is almost invisible. In addition, the training schedule and living time of the German team are kept secret. Despite not knowing whether the German team is "at home" or not, German fans are always packed, waiting for the appearance of coach Nagelsmann and his team.

German national television revealed that coach Nagelsmann was very touched by the affection of the fans for the German team. In the latest statements, the 36-year-old coach affirmed that he will help the German team win the EURO 2024 title even though he has been in charge for less than 10 months.

More specifically, to help fans conveniently meet the players, coach Nagelsmann also prepared two giant-sized German team jerseys and hung them in front of the Herzogenaurach building.

“The shirt was hung on a flagpole high above the building of partner Adidas. With a hidden message: If the home shirt is white on the flag, the German team is “at home”. Conversely, if the away shirt is pink, it means the team is on the move,” explained German news agency DAP .

Giant shirt hung by German team to inform fans

This is similar to Buckingham Palace.

Sharing with DAP , the German team's coaching staff also admitted that coach Nagelsmann's action was inspired by King Charles III (United Kingdom). Buckingham Palace - where King Charles III often visited - also used two flags with different meanings: When the royal flag was raised, it meant that King Charles III was in the palace. On the other hand, if the Union Jack (flag of the United Kingdom) was raised, it meant that King Charles III was not present. This unique change helps visitors to the Palace easily recognize whether the owner is home or not.

Nervous before the match with Denmark

Germany, who finished top of Group A, will face Denmark in the round of 16. In terms of strength, coach Nagelsmann's players are considered superior. However, against the "dark horse" of EURO 2020, the German team must be extremely vigilant.

In the upcoming match, the German team will face many concerns in defense. In the training session on June 27, Antonio Rüdiger was unable to join his teammates. Meanwhile, his partner Jonathan Tah will be suspended for receiving enough yellow cards. Coach Nagelsmann will certainly have to use other options in the round of 16.

Nico Schlotterbeck and Waldemar Anton - who were unused in the three group stage matches - could play together. If this happens, it will be an extremely risky gamble for the German coach.

Nico Schlotterbeck is likely to be used in the match against Denmark.

Germany's sporting director Rudi Völler is worried: "We have to watch and wait day by day. At the moment, it is still too early to say anything about the round of 16. The German team has a great team spirit, which is good when important players are not present. However, the German team must calculate carefully. We are playing at home and any mistake can be very expensive."
