Hurray waves in the stands, back on track in World Cup qualifying: Nevertheless, even after the 4-0 win against Luxembourg, Julian Nagelsmann seems latently annoyed by the debates in the football country.

Observers worried on Friday evening that the German Football Association could face another lawsuit, this time with an accusation of copyright infringement. Did Joshua Kimmich plagiarize his colleague Harry Kane when taking the penalty? Fortunately, the Munich player knew how to calm down: “Harry doesn’t shoot it as easily as I do,” explained the captain of the national team, “he shoots the ball in at 100 km/h.” Kimmich’s shot, on the other hand, hit the target at the maximum speed permitted in the city and thus legitimately contributed to the national team’s 4-0 (2-0) victory against Luxembourg.
