The head coach of the Nimecchina national team, Julian Nagelsmann, commented on his team’s defeat in the 2026 Emergency match against Ecuador (1:2).
" Unfortunately, immediately after the goal was scored, the same characteristics began to work, as they say, well before our progress on the field. After whom the game has become much more complicated for us. For Ecuador, it was a match of life, and it was a big deal - the stench did not take their foot off the gas pedal.
The fact that you have already guaranteed yourself first place in the group without taking away the remaining hundred of self-sacrifice from the team? No, kindly, stop talking to such a nonsense, honestly. You see, the boys didn’t want to give their all? No, it’s not that we wanted less. The stinks just came to the rizik more often in many episodes. Of course, we made the substitutions differently, depending on the situation, if we end up needing one more goal.
But I can’t say enough about my football players that they didn’t give their all. It's on top of the hardening. We needed to be more victorious during the transition from defense to attack.
We must remember that after the end of the match and a quick goal, we need to act calmly, and not start changing positions too often. There was a lot of improvisation on the field. We need to be more patient and preserve more clear structure and spread on the field. And if you waste the ball too often, then at that moment it becomes even more important,” the FIFA press service quotes Nagelsmann as saying..
