    Germany on brink of relegation after loss to Netherlands
    Germany at the bottom of Group 1 with a single point, days before it heads to Paris to take on group leader and World Cup champion France.
    France leads the Dutch by a point at the top of the standings.
    The result also heaped more pressure on Germany coach Joachim Loew, who opted to stay in the job after the 2014 world champion crashed out of the summer's World Cup in Russia at the group stage.

    Key reasons behind Germany's decline

    MARCA

    Germany under Joachim Low appear to be going from bad to worse following the World Cup and after losing to the Netherlands they could be relegated from the UEFA Nations League where they currently are last in their group.Confidence was shown to Low after Germany were eliminated in Russia having lost against Mexico and South Korea with their only win coming over Sweden.Now though they need to improve markedly in their following games against France on Tuesday and then the Netherlands if they are to avoid playing in the second tier of the Nations League.

    Here are the key reasons behind Germany's fall:

    1. The same players and strategySome changes were made during the World Cup but nothing significant and against the Netherlands the base of the side of that won in Brazil four years ago remained with Neuer, Boateng, Hummels, Hector, Kroos and Muller playing.It means that the latest generation of Draxler, Ter Stegen, Sane and Brandt are still waiting on the sidelines.Meanwhile, the play is slow and predictable with little dynamism

    .
    2. Heavy defeatsAmong those most criticised are the two Bayern centre-halves Hummels and Boateng. Against the Netherlands, Low received his heaviest defeat as Germany coach.

    3. Bayern's bad momentBayern tend to be a good reflection of the German national team with many players coming from the Bavarian club. Against the Netherlands there were five Bayern players in the Germany team and at the moment they are surprisingly down in sixth in the table and struggling under coach Nico Kovac.

    4. Lack of a focal point in attackTimo Werner has not been able to fulfill the role previously covered by Klose and Mario Gomez in the past, and be the key man in attack. Germany have just two goals in their last five games and Werner has eight in 20 games. Low has tried alternaties like Mark Uth who hit 17 goals for Hoffenheim last season but it hasn't worked.

    England 2-1 Croatia: Harry Kane scores dramatic late winner

    Harry Kane sealed a stunning late comeback as England booked their place in the UEFA Nations League semi-finals with a 2-1 victory over Croatia at Wembley.
    Two goals in the final 12 minutes from Jesse Lingard (78 ) and captain Kane (85) sparked scenes of wild celebrations as Gareth Southgate's men relegated their World Cup semi-final opponents.
    England were staring relegation in the face themselves when Andrej Kramaric (56) opened the scoring to punish them for a host of missed first-half chances.
    But England dug deep with a dramatic late comeback to secure a victory that sees them finish top Group A4
