Bayern Munich star Joshua Kimmich will be heading into the upcoming World Cup with Germany looking for redemption and a potential reclamation of the famous trophy. In a recent interview, the midfielder sent a clear message to his squad and has urged his teammates to maintain a disciplined and focused approach as they head into the starting phase of the World Cup.
Speaking at the interview, as captured by @iMiaSanMia, he gave his perspective on how the team should go into the World Cup.
“We shouldn’t
be thinking about the final or the title,” Kimmich stated. “Of course that’s a dream everyone has. But that won’t get us anywhere at the beginning of the tournament. We should rather be thinking about the way we want to play football.”
Kimmich is really highlighting the importance of process over outcome here. By emphasizing the need to focus on their specific style of play, he is reinforcing the tactical identity that the World Cup demands from its participants. In a high stakes environment where expectations are always immense, this mindset is crucial for avoiding complacency. It shows a commitment to maintaining consistency and structure, ensuring that the team builds momentum through performance.
