Klinsmann: Portugal and Brazil are the favorites to win the World Cup, and I believe Italy can enter the World Cup

The German team has been confirmed to qualify for next year's World Cup. Klinsmann, who led the German team to the semi-finals of the 2006 World Cup in his home country, recently accepted an interview and talked about many topics.

- Germany advanced to the 2026 World Cup in the United States, Canada and Mexico with a 6-0 victory

"Mission accomplished! This convincing victory against Slovakia put a lot of things back to rest. People always have the highest expectations for the German team, even against weaker opponents. Now we can easily look forward to the World Cup draw in Washington on December 5. "

"Victory against either Any coach is the best medicine, and we are all happy for Nashuai. It is not easy to lead a big football country like Germany to the World Cup. There will always be comments and suggestions from all sides, but the national team coach must keep the course. Against Slovakia, the team maintained the rhythm from the beginning and drove the audience. Only then will we be satisfied. So the defeat in the UEFA Nations League was disappointing and not in line with our expectations. From a fan's perspective, the performance was up and down, especially the defeat in Slovakia - but this happens sometimes - Nagelsmann gave six newcomers the chance to make their debuts this year, including Jan Bicek, Nick Waltermade, Tom Bischof, Nnamdi Collins, Nathaniel Brown and Assan Vedraogo. Said Marra has also participated in training camps recently but has not played

"Bosek and Walter Mader have made rapid progress and will bring us a lot of joy in the future. They have shown top levels in the club and will gradually improve their stability. "

"Germany can always continue to let rookies undergo tempering, which is the envy of global football. Spain and France certainly have excellent youth training, but the Bundesliga is indeed the top place to cultivate and improve young players. Level platform. "

-The German team will restart the warm-up match in Stuttgart next year and has decided to face Ivory Coast. The second opponent in this window has yet to be determined

"This is very difficult, but all World Cup participants face the same problem. The process mechanism of the national team will never be as perfect as that of the club that runs throughout the year, so the competition of this summer's Club World Cup will always take priority. The level is still higher than that of the national team competition. "

-There may still be new stars entering Nagelsmann's field of vision next spring

"Surprises are always possible, and the 26-man World Cup roster also leaves room for the coach to open the door for emerging talents in the next few months. "

-Based on the current strength assessment of each participating country, the prediction of next summer's World Cup champion

"Discussing the favorites is the hottest among our fans. My current prediction is Portugal, followed by Brazil. Portugal, coached by Roberto Martinez, is at the top in every aspect, and even a superstar like Ronaldo is willing to serve the team. This is phenomenal! "

"Brazil, coached by Carlo Ancelotti, will compete in the World Cup with great desire. I hope to see Neymar play with the Brazilian team in the World Cup in Qatar until they are eliminated by Croatia in the quarter-finals. The best player - he has suffered from repeated injuries since then. "

- The unlucky Italy will participate in the World Cup play-offs for the third consecutive time

"I am absolutely sure that the Azzurri will enter the World Cup and they must and will remain calm in the play-offs. This will certainly not be easy. Another failure will have disastrous consequences for the Italian Football Association and the national atmosphere. Let us pray for good luck in the play-offs for our Italian friends! "
