Greece Stun Germany 1-0 in Losing Home Debut for Klopp
- Germany manager Klopp announced on Saturday that Alexander Nübel will start against Greece on Monday, framing the decision as an earned opportunity rather than a critique of Ter Stegen's performance.
- Addressing criticism from Thursday's 1-1 draw, Klopp defended Ter Stegen, saying, "I heard that Marc was judged critically and that surprised me a little." The goalkeeper had made minor errors but performed well overall.
- Alexander has earned his opportunity, Klopp stressed, noting all three goalkeepers are making a "sensational impression." He added, "All three goalkeepers are making a sensational impression here. I hope Alex enjoys it and ideally makes sure tomorrow that we keep a clean sheet."
- Injuries have sidelined Jamal Musiala and Kai Havertz for the fixture, weakening Germany's attacking options. Greece enters the match after defeating Serbia 2-1, positioning the visitors as momentum favorites.
- Germany remains unbeaten in 10 meetings with Greece dating back to 1960, holding a significant historical advantage. Kickoff is scheduled for Monday at 7:45 p.m. BST at the WWK Arena, with Chris Kavanagh refereeing and Andrew Dallas as VAR.
