Germany secured a dominant 7-0 victory over Bosnia-Herzegovina in Freiburg, ensuring they top Group A3 of the Nations League. Florian Wirtz and Tim Kleindienst each scored twice, with Jamal Musiala, Kai Havertz, and Leroy Sane also contributing to the scoreline. This win marks Germany's fourth in the group, maintaining a five-point lead over the Netherlands.

Julian Nagelsmann's team started strong, with Musiala scoring just 78 seconds into the match. Kleindienst then added another goal in the 23rd minute after Robert Andrich's shot deflected off him. Havertz ensured a three-goal lead by halftime. Wirtz further extended the lead with two goals, including a remarkable free-kick before the hour mark.

Sane joined the scoring spree in the 66th minute, making it six for Germany. Kleindienst completed his brace with a close-range finish 11 minutes later. The Germans will conclude their group stage matches with an away game against Hungary on Tuesday. Meanwhile, Bosnia remains at the bottom of the group with one point and will face second-placed Netherlands next.

Germany has now scored 17 goals in five group matches, more than any other team in League A of this season's Nations League. Their attacking prowess is complemented by a solid defence that has conceded only three goals so far. They have achieved two of the largest winning margins this season, including a previous 5-0 win against Hungary.

The match against Bosnia saw Germany attempt an impressive 757 passes, their highest in a single match this season. They recorded 23 shots, with 13 on target and an expected goals (xG) value of 4.03 compared to Bosnia's mere 0.46 xG.

This commanding performance highlights Germany's strength both offensively and defensively as they continue their Nations League campaign.
