DBasia.news – The German national team coach, Hansi Flick, recorded a fantastic record after bringing his squad to a big win with a 9-0 score over the Lichtenstein national team in the 2022 World Cup qualification for the European zone.

Hosting Liechtenstein at the Volkswagen Arena, Friday (12/11) am, WIB, Germany scored nine goals without reply with the advantages of individual players and the quality of the team as a whole.

Germany’s nine goals came from Ilkay Gundogan (11′ penalty), Daniel Kaufmann’s own (20′), Leroy Sane’s double (22′, 49′), Marco Reus (23′), Thomas Muller (76′, 86′ ), Ridle Baku (80′), and an own goal by Maximilian Goppel (89′).

Germany, which has been confirmed to qualify for the 2022 World Cup, played professionally with that victory. Hans-Dieter Flick’s team aka Hansi Flick currently sits in first place in Group J with 24 points from nine matches: scoring 32 goals and conceding three goals.

Flick, according to Squawka, became the first German manager to win his first six games. The record from those six matches was 27 goals, conceded one goal, and kept five clean sheets. The number of goals also exceeds the record of any other coach in Germany.

“I’m glad we (Germany) were able to give Jogi Low nine goals in his farewell match. The fans here at Wolfsburg created a really great atmosphere,” said Hansi Flick.

Flick is also slowly merging the German squad with young and senior players. According to Opta Franz. The average age of Germany’s starting XI against Liechtenstein is 29 years and 11 days (the oldest since the 1-1 draw with Romania in the first match of Euro 2000 – 30 years and 86 days).
