From November 20 to December 18, 32 teams will compete for the title of global champions in football at the World Cup 2022 in Qatar. Big sides like France, Germany, Brazil, Spain, Argentina, England, Portugal, the Netherlands, and Belgium are always among the favorites.
The German national team, managed by Hansi Flick and hoping to redeem themselves after failing to go beyond the Group Round in Russia four years ago. The four-time winner have finished second four times and now have to forget the disappointing 2018 edition when they were only able to net once in all three defeats.
Flick has revitalized an aging team by injecting it with energy, vitality, and risk-taking, leading Die Mannschaft to a 10-match undefeated streak. On September 23 they lost to Hungary, 1-0, ending their unbeaten streak. The former Bayern manager has finally unveiled the whole roster, although it's lacking several attack-oriented guys.
