Rangnick in an interview: “We can put any opponent in trouble” – Sport

With Ralf Rangnick as coach, the euphoria is back in Austria’s national team. Now she meets Germany with Julian Nagelsmann. Conversation about the big plans of a small country, about Alaba and Córdoba – and his European Championship hit “Hoch gwimmas (n)imma”.

Ralf Rangnick wouldn’t be Ralf Rangnick if he would exclaim Halligalli-Laune after his first stage success as Austria’s national coach: “We’re not at the limit yet,” the 65-year-old emphasized recently after the 2-0 win in Estonia. One would think that the European Championship qualification was already close to the upper limit of Austria’s level: they got 19 out of 24 points, their main rival Sweden was left behind, the top games against Belgium took place at eye level. And as the best runner-up in the group, Austria made it into pot two of the European Championship draw.
