Germany
Team Profile
- Germany have participated in more editions of the FIFA World Cup™ than any other European country (20), having qualified for every instalment that they have entered. The 2026 global showpiece marks their 19th consecutive appearance, with the tournament heavyweights having last failed to qualify for the competition back in 1950.
- They secured their place at the 2026 finals on the last matchday of their group with a commanding 6-0 victory over Slovakia. Having lost in their opening fixture against the same opponents, they rebounded impressively with five consecutive wins, capped by that emphatic triumph which sealed top spot.
- Four-time champions, Die Mannschaft have contested the final on eight occasions, which is more than any other nation.
- Despite their tournament pedigree, Germany suffered group-stage exits in the last two editions. Prior to 2018, the only time they had not managed to advance beyond the first round was in 1938.
- Miroslav Klose holds the all-time FIFA World Cup scoring record, having plundered 16 goals across four editions of the tournament (2002-2014).
