“We handle the pressure”
“We are dealing with the pressure as we always do. The pressure has not worsened significantly. Of course we know that we need a positive result now, but we can handle that too,” said Löw. In a win against Portugal, which was defeated in all three games under Löw as national coach at the EM 2008, EM 2012 and the World Cup 2014, you would still have all the options for the knockout phase in your own hands.
Timo Werner also goes into the game with confidence. “An opening defeat is never good because the pressure increases again. But we have a very good mood, although we all realize how important the game is now,” said the attacker in an interview with the “Welt” and added : “I think it’s important that we stay calm and not tense up, otherwise things can quickly go in the other direction against Portugal. I have a good feeling.”
