Nagelsmann: The boys played very well, we were more patient in the second half

New Germany coach Julian Nagelsmann commented on his successful debut after the Bundesliga beat the USA 3-1 in a friendly. The victory for the German national team came after a reversal. "Firstly, congratulations. I think especially considering the last few months, to be 1-0 down and then come back into the game like that, the boys played very, very well. In the first half we didn't have many chances and we couldn't we break through their defense so well. Also individually there were a few problems, which is perfectly normal.

We still need to improve a bit there. Overall, the football we played was very good. In the end, we deserved the win," he began to RTL. Nagelsmann also commented: "In the first half, I had the feeling that we wanted to decide the game too early. Almost every situation we tried to play with a lot of risk and we just lost the ball too much. In the second half, we still played at a high pace, but we were more patient. That was the difference."
