Germany World Cup History

When it comes to the FIFA World Cup there are very few nations with a more storied history than Germany. Die Mannschaft won their first world title in 1954, finished runners-up to England in 1966, before securing their second World Cup in 1974.

West Germany were the losing finalists at back-to-back World Cups in 1982 & 1986, first against Italy and then Argentina. Finally in 1990, the Germans reclaimed the trophy by defeating Argentina, 1-0.

Germany ended runners-up to Brazil in 2002 and won third place at both the 2006 & 2010 editions before a long-awaited fourth World Cup triumph. In 2014 Germany and Argentina contested the World Cup Final for a record third time, as Die Mannschaft emerged victorious at the Maracanã Stadium.

Germany Memorable Moments at the World Cup

With no fewer than four World Cup titles to boast, there is no shortage of fond memories for supporters of the Germany national team.

Their second success, achieved on home soil in 1974, is perhaps the most special given the scenes at full-time of the 2-1 victory over the Netherlands, with 75,200 in attendance at the Olympiastadion Munich.

Germany's World Cup tally climbed to four in 2014, thanks to Mario Götze's extra-time winner versus Argentina. This was the country's first World Cup triumph since German reunification.

There are, of course, also memories which would want to be forgotten about by those associated with Die Mannschaft. In particular the World Cup Finals of 1966 and 2002 against England and Brazil, respectively, both ended in defeat for the Germans. The latter saw Germany lose 2-0 at the International Stadium in Yokohama, as Brazil became the first five-time winners of the FIFA World Cup.

Best Germany Players at the World Cup

Germany are fortunate to have been represented by dozens of elite footballers over the years.

Franz Beckenbauer and Gerd Müller are two of the standout names from the West Germany team at the 1974 World Cup, while Lothar Matthäus and Rudi Völler starred at the 1990 World Cup.

Oliver Khan was instrumental to Germany reaching the World Cup Final in 2002, becoming the first and only goalkeeper in World Cup history to be named player of the tournament. At the opposite end of the pitch, Miroslav Klose scored a record 16 goals at the World Cup finals, having played 24 matches across four editions of the showpiece event.

Other renowned stars who have pulled on the famous white shirt at the World Cup include Philipp Lahm, Bastian Schweinsteiger, Toni Kroos, and Thomas Müller.

Top Germany Coaches at the World Cup

There have been a number of high-profile coaches in charge of the Germany national football team over the years, and a few of them have even guided Die Mannschaft to glory on the grandest stage.

Helmut Schön led West Germany to four consecutive World Cup tournaments from 1966-1978, earning runners-up and third-place finishes before clinching the trophy in 1974.

Former national team captain Franz Beckenbauer took up the role of head coach and oversaw victory at the 1990 World Cup.

Rudi Völler was at the helm when Germany reached the World Cup Final in 2002, while Jürgen Klinsmann could only muster third place at the 2006 event hosted by Germany.

Joachim Löw was the assistant manager of Klinsmann, and he went on to take Germany to each of the 2010, 2014 and 2018 World Cups with success at Brazil 2014.

Löw's former assistant Hansi Flick was named as his successor, but his tenure was spoiled by a group-stage exit at the 2022 World Cup.
