Germany captain Ilkay Gundogan acknowledged that the team is not performing well and that they need to reflect on their performance.
Japan’s manager, Hajime Moriyasu, expressed satisfaction with the win, especially considering the difficult situation in Germany.
Flick had promised to field the core team for the match but made some experimental choices, including starting Nico Schlotterbeck at left-back, a position he has rarely played before.
Germany equalized after Japan’s opener, but Japan quickly regained the lead and sealed their dominant performance with two late goals.
Germany may need to consider a managerial change, with former Bayern boss Julian Nagelsmann potentially waiting in the wings.
