“Vienna is shaking!” – the little neighbor has little more than malice left for Germany. Press comments on the 2-0 defeat of the German national football team in Vienna.
Austria: “Cordoba in Happel! I’m getting crazy. In the 41st prestigious duel, our national team beat Germany ice cold and ended the international year with an incredible 2-0 victory. Vienna is shaking: What a crowning end to the year!”
Krone: “Epic! Rangnick’s ÖFB heroes humiliate Germany. A dream: such a day, as beautiful as today. More committed, more motivated, better at football. The football heart liked that. Well, dear Germans, you wouldn’t have believed that. But we were better – in all respects!”
Standard: “Strong ÖFB team humiliates Germany. To speak of a sensation would be almost an insult to David Alaba and colleagues. Because the 2-0 win against four-time world champions Germany was well deserved and was achieved with a remarkable, even magnificent, naturalness. The big neighbor was very small. Sane goes crazy in a friendly.”
The press: “The European Championship can come – for Austria, not for Germany. The nervous Nagelsmann gesticulated wildly in the coaching area, while Ralf Rangnick watched the action on the pitch contentedly and calmly. It was somehow a topsy-turvy world of football.”
ORF: “Highly deserved prestige victory – ÖFB team makes Germany look old. Austria defeated Germany for the second time in a row, and for the first time since the 1930s, when the ‘miracle team’ was still performing. Germany was a shadow of its former self. It could have been worse, but Austria left it at 2-0.”
