Nagelsmann laughs at the handball bankruptcy: I am quieter than Cucurella!

Frankfurt, Deutschland - Frankfurt - a smile despite the bitter memories! National coach Julian Nagelsmann shows himself calmly after the European Championship out and takes the controversial handball scene with humor. "I feel better than the pants from Cucurella," joked Nagelsmann about the Spanish player, who clearly touched the ball in the quarterfinals and confessed in a moment of panic: "What a fright. I put myself in my pants."

The heated game ended for Germany with a 1-2 after referee Graham Taylor had not decided on a penalty, although the hand touch of Cucurella was unmistakable. Nagelsmann, who remained surprisingly quiet in the situation, reflected: "I am very amazed at how calm I stayed there. This is very atypical for me." A truly emotional game that made the hearts of fans beat faster!

In retrospect, UEFA admitted the error in this decisive scene. Nagelsmann himself admitted that he had not clearly noticed the situation during the game. "In the end, I don't worry much, I can no longer influence it anyway," said the coach. His message to the players? "In the end, we can't shoot anyone by hand, but immediately into the goal, then we will get on." A clear call to focus on the essentials!
