Asked if Flick will remain Germany coach, Völler said in a post-match interview:
"We should collect ourselves first."
"Tomorrow we'll do some training. Then we'll play France. After that, we should do some soul-searching and think about the way forward."
The former Bayer 04 Leverkusen boss was in a state of shock after the heavy defeat.
"We're all still in shock. The atmosphere was great, the fans were on our side. They supported us until the score was 1-1 and then we made too many mistakes."
"It was an embarrassment, but we deserved it. A defeat like that hurts," said Völler.
