The defeat in Amsterdam was Germany's fifth defeat in 2018. For the first time, the German team didn't manage to score in three consecutive games in a major competition. To be relegated would mean to only stand for second class football.
Loew spoke about his boundless disappointment as "established players should take responsibility in the last quarter of the game and not cause further chaos."
Now the pressure on Loew has reached a new climax.
The Berlin-based tabloid Bild called Germany's Nations League group game against France "a final for Loew." The paper said confidence in Loew hasn't been lower than at present adding: The crisis of the German national team is a crisis of Joachim Loew.
The Munich-based Sueddeutsche spoke about a "nightmare like evening," and the Frankfurter Allgemeine spoke about what until now seemed to lie beyond imagination: "Germany is in danger to be relegated."
The team's leaders have turned into the team's most significant burden the Hamburg-based news-magazine "Der Spiegel" commented.
Others assume Loew's time could end in November when Germany is facing the Netherlands in their Nations League home game. "Loew faces stormy autumn," the Essen-based Westdeutsche Allgemeine commented.
The duel against their old rival France, Loew's 169th game as German national coach, seems the last chance to find convincing answers and count on challengers such as Leroy Sane (Manchester City), Julian Brandt (Bayer Leverkusen), Julian Draxler (Paris St Germain) and Timo Werner (RB Leipzig) and, most important at all, change the team's game strategy.
