Greece stuns Germany 1-0 in Augsburg during a UEFA Nations League match.

Greece stunned Germany 1-0 in Augsburg in a UEFA Nations League match, earning a significant away victory and leaving Germany still without a win. Dimitris Kourbelis scored the decisive goal in the 74th minute, his deflected long-range shot beating Germany’s goalkeeper. Germany created several chances but could not convert, while Greece held on to protect its lead. The result strengthened Greece’s position in the group and increased pressure on Germany and coach Jürgen Klopp.
The match was the second matchday of the Nations League group: Germany came in after a 1-1 draw with the Netherlands, while Greece had beaten Serbia 2-1 away and arrived with three points.
One report characterized the loss as the worst managerial start in German national-team history under Jürgen Klopp.
A Greek report said the win moved Greece close to first place in its Nations League group and would secure a place in the first pot for the Euro 2028 qualifying draw.
Germany defender Nico Schlotterbeck was reported set to miss the match, although the preview did not specify why he was absent.
