“Kernkraft 400” is the DFB’s current goal anthem

The DFB also seems to have the catchy tune on the clock. The song can be heard at the very beginning of Adidas’ new jersey commercial. The association is likely to be open to a new goal anthem. Especially since national coach Julian Nagelsmann (36) is also considered very musical. During the most recent training sessions in November, music was even played while warming up.

Since 2019, the techno hit “Kernkraft 400” by Zombie Nation from 1999 has been playing after the DFB team’s goals. This was also the case on Tuesday in the test clash against Holland (8.45 p.m./RTL). Before that, Oliver Pocher’s hit “Black and White” was played – written for the 2006 World Cup. But after all these years, the fans had had enough of it.
