Like a bratwurst faced with a kilt and razor-sharp sgian-dubh, both Germany and Scotland have cause to fear today's Germany vs Scotland Euro 2024 opener at Bayern Munich’s Fußball Arena. Talent isn’t the problem for the tournament hosts, who can count Jamal Musiala, Florian Wirtz and Leroy Sané among their ranks, but a growing rift with the supporters.
Uncharacteristically poor showings at recent tournaments have invited public criticism, which has become so extreme in some quarters that it was left to Julian Nagelsmann and Joshua Kimmich to denounce an overtly racist survey about the makeup of the team that was being circulated by the national broadcaster ARD just last week. Lose their opening fixture and, ridiculous as they are, those voices will only grow louder.
Steve Clarke has turned Scotland – for so long a footballing punchline – into a solid unit, one that bested Spain in qualifying. Scott McTominay in particular has become the team’s talisman, and they now have the experience of the last Euros, in which they played with far too much emotion, to draw upon too.
The Scots might not have quite as much sparkle sprinkled through their team as the Germans, but they can be a ferocious pressing machine when they're on song. Considering the climate, a confident start could be key for Nagelsmann's men, but their opponents will be in their faces from the off.
Germany team: Neuer, Kimmich, Rudiger, Tah, Mittelstadt, Andrich, Kroos, Musiala, Gundogan (c), Wirtz, Havertz.
Scotland team: Gunn, Ralston, Hendry, Porteous, Tierney, Robertson (c), Christie, McGregor, McTominay, McGinn, Adams.
