The DFB thrust the job to Hansi Flick after the team went on a wane post-2014. A new set of players were blended in while the Germans also dropped their official moniker ‘Die Mannschaft’. Flick enjoyed a successful spell at Bayern before taking the reins and will rely on his Bavarian stars like Thomas Muller to deliver the goods on Wednesday.
“We have to be prepared for a tough battle against Japan. We have to be focused from the very first minute. Then everything is possible with the team,” said team director Oliver Bierhoff this week.

Japan meanwhile will be prepared for the German challenge with as many as eight of their squad exported to the Bundesliga. Japan veteran Yuto Nagatomo said those eight, who include Europa League winner with Eintracht Frankfurt Daichi Kamada, were constantly feeding teammates information on their opponents.
“You don’t even have to ask – in the canteen or on the bus, you’re getting information from everywhere,” said Nagatomo.
Japan will no doubt be keen to exploit Germany’s weakness in defence and its vulnerability against quick counter-attacks. An upset in the first match against the Germans could go a long way in getting them past the group stage, just like they had done in 2018 when they narrowly lost to Belgium in the Round of 16.
