Robert Lewandowski confident Germany will get better before Euro 2024
There’s really no sugarcoating it. The German national team has been performing way below their high standards in their last handful of matches, albeit they’ve all just been international friendlies. However, they’ve all come on the heels of Die Mannschaft failing to make it out of their group at the World Cup in Qatar, suffering the same fate for the second consecutive World Cup.
Ever since the tournament in Qatar, Hansi Flick’s national side have had a 2-0 win over Peru, a 3-2 loss to Belgium, a 3-3 draw with Ukraine, and a 1-0 loss to Poland. Looking at the bigger picture, Germany has now only won 3 of their last 13 matches dating all the way back to late March of 2022 between friendlies, qualifiers, UEFA Nations League matches, and World Cup matches. They don’t have to go through a qualifying campaign since they’re the host nation for next summer’s European Championships, but their performances need to take a serious shift in the right direction before the tournament kicks off.
Former Bayern Munich striker Robert Lewandowski logged a half of action in Poland’s recent 1-0 friendly win over Germany and spoke after the match about how he feels the Euro 2024 hosts have plenty of times to get thing right before next summer. Of course, he knows most of the players quite well from his time at Bayern and in the Bundesliga as a whole.
