Germany drew 1-1 with the Netherlands in Jürgen Klopp’s first match in charge. SB Nation’s analysis says Germany retreated under second-half pressure, raising questions about the team’s confidence, player selection and fit with Klopp’s system.
The piece says Karim Adeyemi looked ineffective against the Netherlands despite, according to the article, recording three goals and three assists in 305 minutes for Barcelona. It frames his club form as a dilemma for Klopp, with Lennart Karl described as waiting for his place.
A post cited in the article credited goalkeeper Marc-André ter Stegen with nine saves and 1.85 expected goals prevented. The writer also criticized his passing and command of the box, arguing that Klopp’s plan to build from the back makes those weaknesses important.
