The Story in 60 Seconds

Germany manager Jurgen Klopp has introduced a new dressing room ritual reminiscent of Liverpool's 'This Is Anfield' tradition. Ahead of Nations League fixtures against Serbia and the Netherlands, Klopp installed a poster reading 'For you, for us, for Germany' that players touch for luck before heading onto the pitch.

The ritual echoes the Anfield tradition that Klopp famously restricted early in his Liverpool tenure, where players were barred from touching the iconic sign until winning a trophy. That restriction was lifted following Liverpool's 2019 Champions League victory, before Klopp eventually departed the club in 2024.
