FIFA U-17 World Cup Participants Profile 2023: Germany, Euro U-17 Champion Capital
JAKARTA - The U-17 German national team won the Euro U-17 2023 after winning 5-4 on penalties from France in the top match. The success of winning with a winning record of all matches became Germany's strong capital in the 2023 FIFA U-17 DUA Cup.
Currently Germany U-17 is one of the strong teams competing in Group F of the U-17 World Cup with Venezuela, Mexico and New Zealand.
At Euro U-17 2023, they wiped out the group stage matches against France, Portugal and Scotland. And the ticket to Indonesia was in hand after slashing Switzerland in the quarter-finals on penalties.
Currently the U-17 German national team is led by Christian Wuck. He is one of the old people at the federation. The reason is, Wuck has been in DFB since 2012.
Wuck brought Germany U-17 to win Euro U-17 which was held earlier this year. After bringing the U-17 team to champion, he then handled the U-15 national team.
However, he was again asked to handle the U-17 national team which will compete in Indonesia. Wuck, who was a player in the front position, has played 168 times in the Bundesliga. He once defended Nuremberg, Karlsruhe and Wolfsburg.
Germany U-17 again relies on Assan Ouedraogo, a creative midfielder who has two legs to live on. His ability to score the ball is good with his skill to score goals.
Di Piala Eropa, dirinya bermain lima kali dari enam pertandingan Jerman. Gelandang Schalke yang ayahnya eks pemain timnas Burkinao Faso ini mencetak gol penting saat menang 5-3 atas Turki di semifinal melawan Poland.
In a penalty shootout against France, Ouedraogo's execution also led Germany to become champions.
He became a pillar of Germany's strength to get through the preliminary round of Group F which held a match at the Si Jalak Harupat Stadium in Bandung. Starting with the inaugural match on November 12, 2023 against Mexico.
The second match will be held on November 15, 2023, Germany will meet New Zealand. Meanwhile, Germany will pass the third preliminary match against Venezuela.
From the results of the group draw, it is believed that many German parties have strong enough capital to be able to move towards the knockout stages of the 2023 Indonesian U-17 World Cup.
The German U-17 national team has 10 appearances in the U-17 World Cup, so that the appearance in Indonesia in November-December 2023 will be the 11th participation.
Despite having the opportunity to appear up to 10 times and often having the capital of star players, Germany has never brought home the U-17 World Cup trophy.
The best achievement was achieved in China's 1985 U-17 World Cup, when they played in the top but only won second place.
Germany U-17 also finished in third place twice, namely in 2007 and 2011. And in 1997, Germany recorded itself reaching fourth place in the same tournament.
In the 2023 Indonesia U-17 World Cup, Germany has become one of the strengths that must be watched out for and become a candidate for champion.
