The 22nd World Cup will kick off on 21 November 2022 and the Germans are looking forward to the tournament. The first leg of the qualifying campaign was won by the home side, but in the second leg, they had to overcome Macedonia. In the second leg, Germany beat Liechtenstein 1-0. France and Argentina drew 0-0, and England won 2-0 against Slovenia. However, the home team will have to win both of these games to secure a place in the world cup.
After a win over Iceland in the opening match, Germany has now won nine out of its last 10 World Cup qualifiers. This is their best ever record at this tournament. Their home record is also impressive, with only two defeats in the previous 101. In the qualifying rounds, they have lost to Portugal, England and North Macedonia. Their goal scoring record is excellent, with over three goals scored per match. One of their star players, Serge Gnabry, has scored eight goals in nine World Cup qualifiers.
The Mannschaft's last 12 months have been rocky. They lost to North Macedonia in the first round of the qualifiers, and then went on to lose to Spain in the Round of 16. At Euros, they lost to England in the quarterfinals. The team also lost Jogi Low, their former manager. His replacement, former Bayern Munich coach Hansi Flick, has a perfect record at this tournament, with three wins from five. The team is still far from perfect, but the chances of reaching the World Cup are still very high.
The German national team has qualified for the 2022 FIFA World Cup Finals by winning their Group J qualifiers. They are the first nation outside of Qatar to qualify for the tournament. The Germans needed to win two games to qualify - against North Macedonia 4-0 in North Macedonia and Romania with a 1-0 loss in Romania. This is the first time Germany has ever won a World Cup. This is a great achievement for the German team.
The Germans have been unbeaten in the World Cup qualifiers for almost two years. They have won seven of their eight games. In this period, they have only one defeat, and it was against North Macedonia in March. The "minnows" are now gaining confidence, while the formerly disadvantaged teams are struggling. In the meantime, Germany is ready for the 2022 World Cup. It's the first team in history to qualify.
While it's not possible to predict the winner of a World Cup qualifier, Germany's success will be a positive step. In the last round, they eliminated Moldova and Romania, while advancing to the finals. The teams are also in a good position to qualify for the 2022 tournament. With their success, they can now reach the World Cup finals in Russia and the next major tournaments in England.
