Dietmar Hamann launched a fierce attack on Julian Nagelsmann after Germany's shock 2026 World Cup exit, accusing the head coach of failing to build team unity and neglecting player scouting. The former Germany international also questioned the coach's commitment as pressure continues to grow on the national team boss.

Joshua Kimmich accepted full responsibility after Germany's World Cup campaign ended with a penalty shootout defeat to Paraguay in the last 32. The defender admitted his side never reached their best level during the tournament and insisted the players alone were to blame for another disappointing exit.

Germany crashed out of the World Cup after a penalty shootout defeat to Paraguay following a 1-1 draw after extra time. Julian Nagelsmann was left furious by the decision to disallow Jonathan Tah's extra-time goal, branding the VAR intervention a "scandal" before becoming frustrated during a post-match television interview.

Since lifting the 2014 World Cup, Germany have endured a nightmare run at the biggest football tournament on the planet. They embarrassingly exited the competition at the group stage in both 2018 and 2022, and while they made it into the knockouts this time around in 2026, they still failed to reach the last 16 after falling on penalties to Paraguay on a chastening Monday afternoon in Boston.
