Prediction: 1-2
France
The ground at Signal Iduna Park will shake when Germany and France go head to head in a friendly on Tuesday evening. The Germans suffered an embarrassing 4-1 loss to Japan on Saturday, with the team extending their winless run to five games and, no doubt, they are desperate to grab something from this warm-up match. Bayer Leverkusen centre-back Jonathan Tah is pushing for a start after Germany experienced all sorts of problems at the back against the Samurai Blue, while both Leon Goretzka and Thomas Muller have been left out of the squad. Experienced goalkeeper Manuel Neuer remains in the recovery room.
Les Tricolores, on the other hand, recorded a routine 2-0 win over Republic of Ireland in their last EURO 2024 qualifier, meaning that they are brimming with confidence ahead of the trip to Dortmund. France are more of a team than Germany and we predict that they will take advantage of Die Mannschaft’s shaky defence. Both Raphael Varane and Olivier Giroud are sidelined with injuries, while the likes of Kingsley Coman, Benjamin Pavard, and Eduardo Camavinga should be recalled to the starting XI.
Highlighted Player (Leroy Sane):
Leroy Sane began his senior career at Schalke 04. The pacey winger, who is capable of playing as attacking midfielder as well, made his debut for die Knappen on 20 April, 2014 against Stuttgart. Sane came as a substitute in the second half of the match, replacing Max Mayer 13 minutes before the final whistle.
He scored 11 goals in 47 league appearances for Schalke and on 2 August, 2016 he signed a deal with big-spending Premier League side Manchester City. The former Schalke footballer joined the Citizens on a five-year deal for a fee of £37 million. Sane was born in Essen on 11 January, 1996, but his father is Senegalese.
Souleymane Sane used to play for the Senegalese national football team in the past, while his mother Regina Weber was a rhythmic gymnast. Speaking of his international career, Leroy Sane has 6 caps for Germany U21 and he made his debut for the senior team on 13 November, 2015 in a 2-0 loss to France.
Highlighted Team (France):
Recording impressive results on international stage since 1904, France are widely regarded as one of the world’s most successful national teams, with three major trophies to their name. Two of those were won on home soil as Les Bleus emerged triumphant at the 1984 World Cup and 1998 European Championships, before also winning the 2000 Euros in Netherlands and Belgium.
Michel Platini, Jean Tigana, Luis Fernandez and Alain Giresse formed the “Carre Magique” during the 80’s as one of the most impressive attacking line-ups made life difficult for opposition defenders for years on end.
The new golden generation appeared at the turn of the century and featured players like Thierry Henry, Zinedine Zidane, David Trezeguet and Youri Djorkaef, winning back to back major trophies to place Les Bleus back on the map.
A new world-class team appears to be in the making as the likes of Paul Pogba, Antoine Griezmann and Raphael Varane are the pillars of the team led by Didier Deschamps. France national team now play their games at the stunning Saint Denis, or Stade de France.
