Julian Nagelsmann says Germany's star-studded lineup must find their rhythm against Paraguay.
Germany coach Julian Nagelsmann said Sunday only winning the Fifa World Cup can silence the sceptics of his side as they prepare for a last-32 showdown against Paraguay.
Despite progressing as Group E winners with a game to spare after a 7-1 thrashing of Curacao and a late 2-1 win over Ivory Coast, defeat to Ecuador in their last outing has raised further doubts about Germany's chances of progressing far in the tournament.
Even if they do beat a Paraguay team that finished third in their group on Monday near Boston, Nagelsmann's men could run in to the might of France in the last 16.
"When you talk about the German national team, it is all about trying to win every game. It is all about winning the game tomorrow," Naglesmann told his pre-match press conference on Sunday.
