The Germans will have to find ways to contain the teenager's speed and skills, Nagelsmann told a press conference, but said he was more focused on his own creative forward Musiala. "He is a big talent. He's been very consistent this year and there are not many who are so consistent, also for his club Barcelona. He is just 16, which also means our players have a chance to hold their own against him. We'll see how he reacts when things get tough."
"We have a defensive orientation with different variations but we have the demand to have the ball ourselves. It is more comfortable to play when you have possession," Nagelsmann said.
