Die Mannschaft suffered a shock exit after winning just one of their group games and now face a huge rebuild ahead of Euro 2020
There is a little crest above the player number on the front of Germany's World Cup jerseys. It denotes the current World Cup champions and is a special badge worn only by the holders.
But until a new champion is crowned on July 15, this special crest will be nowhere to be seen in Russia. Germany's humiliating exit from the tournament ensures a new team will earn the right to wear it on their chest, while Die Mannschaft must adjust to life with a new-look jersey.
