With a brace from Joshua Kimmich, goals from David Raum and Serge Gnabry, Germany defeated Luxembourg 4-0 in the new round of European qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup. Germany captain Kimmich said he doesn't care what position he plays in the game, as long as he can perform well in every position.

David Raum scored from a free kick in the 12th minute, giving Germany a 1-0 lead. In the 19th minute, Luxembourg defender Dirk Karlsson was shown a red card for contact with the ball, giving Germany a penalty kick. Kimmich converted the penalty kick, extending Germany's lead to 2-0.

Shortly after the second half began, Gnabry received a through ball from Adeyemi, which was cleared by the opponent. Gnabry then pushed the ball into the goal, helping Germany extend its lead to 3-0. In the 50th minute, Germany's corner kick was blocked, but Kimmich scored in the melee, making the score 4-0.

In the end, Germany defeated Luxembourg 4-0 and achieved two consecutive victories.

Kimmich, who played as a defender in this game, said, "This victory is really important, but what's more important is the way we won. We showed the right skills and mentality, which was our game plan. We pressed aggressively in the frontcourt, stayed focused when transitioning to attack, and did a good job of counter-pressing. Of course, this will be a little easier against an opponent with one less player."

"I don't need to be told which position to play. I don't care at all. For me, it's up to the manager to decide where I play. That's a matter of course."

Kimmich continued: "At Bayern Munich, I play as a defensive midfielder. In Germany, I play here and there. My goal is to perform well in every position, and I am very happy to contribute two goals."

In addition, German midfielder Goretzka said, "The coach is satisfied with our overall performance. We did a good job in competing for the ball, and everyone is satisfied with the game. We took our opponents seriously, which is very important, and it also made our body language on the court more positive."

"We have to look at the overall context of the game, but we did perform much better than in the game in September. I was told during the game to coordinate our pressing in the front court and adjust the positions of some forwards. We performed well and with enough intensity, which is the key to victory."
