Outside the World Cup, Kroos criticizes Germany’s performance: “They can play better”

World champion in 2014, the Real Madrid midfielder underlines the mistakes of the German team, but also sees the evolution

Retired from national team Germany since 2021, midfielder Toni Kroos is not happy with the performance of ‘Die Mannschaft’ in Qatar World Cup🇧🇷 The Germans are yet to win in the competition and lost 2-1 against Japan and drew 1-1 against Spain.

– I know we have great young players. They know for themselves that they can play a little better football. To be truly successful at the World Cup, you need to know how to do a lot more with the ball. You absolutely have to improve it – said Toni Kroos.

Despite the defeat against Japan, which the Real Madrid midfielder has classified as an “end of the world atmosphere”, Kroos sees an evolution in the team commanded by Hansi Flick, who will try to qualify for the round of 16 against Costa Rica next Thursday at 4 pm (Brasilia time), for the last round of Group E of the World Cup.

– I know from personal experience that it’s possible to play well against Spain, even in ball possession. But I think it’s very difficult to get rid of the post-defeat pressure they put on – scored Kroos.
