Nagelsmann praised Wendav for being a threat in the match.


Thanks to a brace from Windaff, along with goals from Wirtz and Musiala, Germany secured a comfortable 4-0 victory over Finland in a friendly match. Coach Nagelsmann stated that Windaff was a dangerous threat and performed admirably.


In the 34th minute, Germany won a corner kick. Kimmich chipped the ball into the penalty area, and Windav headed it in, giving Germany a 1-0 lead. In the 48th minute of the second half, Windav intercepted the ball and passed it back to Wirtz, who slotted it home, extending Germany's lead over Finland to 2-0.


In the 57th minute, Lennart Karl delivered a long pass, and Windav received it before firing a low shot into the net, making it 3-0 for Germany. In the 63rd minute, Pavlovic played a diagonal pass, and Musiala received it, adjusted his position, and then fired a long-range shot into the net, extending Germany's lead to 4-0.


Ultimately, Germany defeated Finland 4-0 at the Meva Arena, continuing to build momentum for the 2026 World Cup.


Germany coach Julian Nagelsmann said, "Windav was very dangerous, he was just a little unlucky with his first shot. He was involved in three goals and played a very good game."


It is worth noting that Wendav suffered an injury after scoring two goals in the match and was therefore substituted.


Nagelsmann commented, "I don't think Winduff is in any problem. He carried a very heavy workload at Stuttgart and played a lot of games. I saw him in a good mood in the locker room after the match, and his performance in the game was also excellent."


“Lennard Carr had a lot of touches and participated in the attack in the first half. He tried a lot of things and performed well many times in the second half as well. He is a player who will be very valuable to us in the future.”


In addition, Nagelsmann said, "The players executed the game plan very well, and we had a very good start, playing particularly well in the first 15 minutes."


"In the second half, we sometimes dropped back to defend, and then scored on the counter-attack, which also helped the team. The result of this game was good; we didn't concede a goal, so we need to maintain this form."


On the other hand, when talking about his injury, Wendav said, "I do have some pain, but it's nothing serious. Everything is fine, and I'll be back to normal after a few days of treatment."
