'Die Mannschaft' haven't lost their opening match at a World Cup since 1982, but German striker Timo Werner still believes the team can bounce back and win the tournament in Russia.
"Of course we can still win the World Cup," Werner told Goal.com and continued:
"We are Germany and we want to win every game, that's clear. Things like this can happen, you can lose a game, but now you have to get up as quickly as possible and find the best solution.
"It is better to lose the first game than the fourth or fifth. Spain lost their first match in the World Cup in South Africa and ended up being the champions. Now, what we have to do is win the next match against Sweden."
Germany will face Sweden on Saturday.
