(SOUNDBITE) (German) GERMANY NATIONAL TEAM COACH, JULIAN NAGELSMANN, SAYING: "We just want to play a bit more forward, rather than playing a back pass, and take risks up front. There is a risk involved but when everyone is committed to each other and reacts correctly to the situation, to the passes, to the long balls, to the short balls and to losing possession, and has a commitment to playing for each other, then we will get back on track. Where we haven't made quantum leaps, but always small steps in the right direction. Now we have to keep going, we have to get back to taking those small steps. We can start tomorrow. That will be a big step because then we will qualify. Then we'll have until March to make further decisions, the players will have time to play well for their clubs, prove themselves and decide that they want to be at the World Cup. Then I'm confident that we'll get back on the path we've set out on and continue to develop in the right direction." 17. PRESS CONFERENCE IN PROGRESS 18. MEDIA 19. (SOUNDBITE) (German) GERMANY GOALKEEPER, OLIVER BAUMANN, SAYING: "I think we would do well to get these basics right in the game. We need to get our attitude right again, because if we get the basics right, that will be a good foundation for winning and playing well. I think that's how we need to approach it. If you're good defensively, then you'll also be good offensively." 20. PHOTOGRAPHER 21. END OF PRESS CONFERENCE 22. PLAYERS WARMING UP 23. MIDFIELDER JOSHUA KIMMICH WARMING UP SEPARATELY 24.
