Both European giants come into this clash after disappointing semifinal exits earlier this week. Germany fell 2-1 to Portugal in a tightly-contested affair, with Cristiano Ronaldo striking a late winner to deny the hosts a shot at the title. <\/p><p>Despite playing on home soil, Die Mannschaft looked disjointed in a performance that fell short of expectations. Meanwhile, France&rsquo;s semifinal was a chaotic nine-goal thriller against defending champions Spain. After finding themselves 4-0 down in the opening half hour, Les Bleus mounted an incredible fightback, only to lose 5-4 in one of the most dramatic Nations League games ever played.<\/p><p>With silverware off the table, Sunday&rsquo;s clash may lack the intensity of a final but it remains a valuable opportunity for players to impress and for both sides to end their campaigns on a high. Germany will look to leverage their home advantage while France will aim to bounce back.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Germany-France throughout the years &#128074;\r&#127465;&#127466;&#127467;&#127479;<br><br>&#128248; Imago | Getty Images <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/tUH7LYKDzw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/tUH7LYKDzw<\/a><\/p>&mdash; German Football (@DFB_Team_EN) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/DFB_Team_EN\/status\/1931275459775365172?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>June 7, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Germany Injury News <\/h2><p>Germany head coach Julian Nagelsmann confirmed that there will be a few changes to the starting XI for Sunday&rsquo;s third-place playoff.
