The match between Spain and Germany is not only the most important in Group E, but also the most symbolic: the two most dominant football countries of the 21st century will meet on the field.
What about the national teams
The best way reflect the total superiority record the victories of national teams or teams from these 1win-az.net countries in four major tournaments: the World and European Championships, the Champions League and the Europa League.
Spain or Germany (a national team or a club from the country) missed only three years: they didn’t win anything in 2003 (Real flew out in 1/2 of the Champions League), 2005 (Bayern reached 1/4 of the Champions League, Villarreal & minus; 1/4 UEFA Cup) and 2019 (Barca Champions League semi-final, Valencia LE semi-final).
In the 21st century, clubs from Spain and Germany have won 13 out of 22 Champions Leagues. With the UEFA Cup / Europa League, the situation is similar 12 victories in 22 draws.
2014 is the peak year, when all the main trophies ended up in Spain and Germany. Spanish clubs dominated European competition, and the Germans won the World Cup.
Perhaps someone will have a question: why Germany and not Italy? The Italians in the 21st century have a victory at the World Cup, Euro and three Champions League cups from clubs from Serie A. That's right, but we must not forget that the Italian club won the last European Cup in the 2009/10 season (Championship was won by Inter Mourinho), and the Italian team failed to qualify for the last two World Cups, losing in the clashes between Sweden and North Macedonia.
In addition to winning the 2014 World Cup, the German national team has a silver medal in the 2002 World Cup and two bronze medals in 2006 and 2010. The Germans did not win the European Championship in the 21st century, but there is silver in 2008 and two bronze medals for 2012 and 2016.
Now we visualize the victories a little differently and realize the scale of dominance once again.
