The Germany national team ended its goal-scoring streak in the 2026 World Cup qualifying stage that had been ongoing since 2001. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
For the first time in 24 years, the German team failed to score in a qualifying match. The last time this happened was in 2001, when Germany drew 0-0 with the Finland national team.
In the recently held opening match of the qualifying stage, the German team lost 0-2 away to the Slovakia national team. The goals were scored by Slovak players David Gantsko and David Strelets.
Thus, under the leadership of head coach Julian Nagelsmann, the Germany national team has suffered its third consecutive defeat, including friendly matches. This result indicates the need for the team to reassess its capabilities in the qualifying stage.
