German football union is not going to dismiss the head coach of the team Joachim Leva after a disgraceful speech at Mundiale.

According to the president of the Federation, Reinhard Grindl, they hope that the results of the team can become better, because the generation change, in their opinion, should benefit the "bundestim".

It is interesting that only before the start of the world championship Lev renewed the contract with the team until mid-2022.

"The Executive Committee of the German Football Union even before the start of the World Cup decided to invite Lev to extend the contract. We believe that with the succession of generations that will take place after the World Cup, regardless of the result in the tournament, no one will be better able to cope with this task, except for him.

Last year he proved at the Confederations Cup that he can make an impressive team of young players that shows outstanding football. It can still happen, as it seems to us, "- quotes the words of Grindl ESPN.

The departure of the team from the competition was commented on by Leo himself.

"In the locker room we had dead silence. Everyone is disappointed, no one could even say a word. Must accept this. Congratulations to our rivals. We did not deserve a way out to the next round. We did not lay out on the field, our game did not look dynamic. It was often said about how difficult it is to repeat the success of the last World Cup. Perhaps they were too self-confident before the first fight with Mexico. But I can not blame the team in the games against Sweden and South Korea. Today, I lost all German football, not only we. We can only apologize for this, "- quotes the words of Lev Sport1. de.

Note that in the last match of the group stage of the 2018 World Cup, Germany lost epically to South Korea with a score of 0: 2. This result lowered the Germans to the last place in the quartet.

Thus, "Bundestim" for the first time in history failed to overcome the group stage of the World Championships.

Joachim Lev leads the German team since 2006. During this time he managed to win the World Cup 2014 and reach the final of Euro 2008.

The reasons for this were the Russian Federation's invasion of Ukraine and Syria, the poisoning of Russian ex-intelligence agent Sergey Skripal in Britain, the starvation of Ukrainian political prisoners, including the director Oleg Sentsov, and the systematic violation of human rights in the Russian Federation.

Unlimited hunger strike Sentsov announced May 14, 2018. His main demand is the dismissal of more than 60 Ukrainian political prisoners who are behind bars in Russia. This requirement of the director was supported by the US State Department, the EU, the Canadian Parliament and.

2015 Russian court illegally sentenced Sentsov to 20 years in a strict-regime colony. The actions in support of the director took place all over the world, including in Russia.
