Julian Nagelsmann said Toni Kroos delivered a "really powerful" pep talk to the Germany team before the Euro 2024 hosts posted a record 5-1 victory against Scotland in the opening game of the tournament in Munich.

Goals from Florian Wirtz, Jamal Musiala, Kai Havertz, Niclas Füllkrug and Emre Can enabled the Germans to claim the biggest opening-game win at a European championship.
