President's visit and beer-related news have politicians hoping for a favorable impact on the EM.

Frank-Walter Steinmeier left his limousine and greeted Rudi Völler and DFB leader Bernd Neuendorf before being led to the German football team's hotel. This high-profile visit, estimated to cost over a million dollars, marks the culmination of the preparation for the home European Championship. On Wednesday, the focus shifted away from sporting progress to a more official event in the scenic Thuringian hills.

"Major football tournaments get our hearts racing, including mine, especially in our own country," the Federal President exclaimed after meeting the DFB team's captain Ilkay Gündogan and goalkeeper Manuel Neuer. "I share the enormous ambition of the players in bringing home the European Championship trophy."

Neuendorf expressed deep appreciation for Steinmeier's visit, which was scheduled a day before the European Championship final at the Olympic Stadium. National Coach Julian Nagelsmann had earlier remarked that the president would converse and collaborate with them. National player Deniz Undav admired the "immense respect" for Steinmeier.

Before Steinmeier's arrival, Chancellor Olaf Scholz shared his EC hopes in a podcast interview, also expecting to watch the matches with bratwurst and beer in his garden. Both politicians reiterated their support for the National Team.

These weeks are vital for Germany, as their performance could shape the mood in the country. Scholz expressed hope for fanatical support and victory, which could boost national morale.

Sané, Pavlovic, and Musiala, Muenchen teammates of Chancellor Scholz, participated in training. Captain Gündogan was present as scheduled. The bubble-like atmosphere was further expanded by the arrival of Wirtz, Andrich, and Tah, Leverkusen's double winners. Undav noted the implementation of actions, and U21 players Gruda and Reitz would remain with the team until June 7th.

Recent occurrences underscore the significance of the event's political dimension. Steinmeier's visit is more than just a morale booster for the team; it also signals their improved relationship with the government. Scholz's statement, particularly his reference to Germany's current political issues and Lahm's comment on a crucial turning point in German football and society, demonstrates a newfound willingness to be involved in supporting the event.

Scholz also emphasized a dedicated focus on security, stating that they'd prepared for every potential threat. These announcements are significant given the continuous criticism of the government's unenthusiastic involvement in the tournament.

Nagelsmann, meanwhile, has his eyes set on soccer, eager for success while dealing with Neuer's comeback after overcoming a stomach-intestinal ailment. The team's morale was boosted by Sané's appearance after a leg injury. Other players like Wirtz, Andrich, and Tah joined the team, and Gündogan arrived as planned. Undav affirmed the rising excitement within the group.

The last fall saw accusations of insufficient governmental support and clashes between federal and state authorities, with demands for a cohesive vision for the tournament. Now, with the prominent political role, the impending European Championship seems to be a platform fostering unity.

While the football preparation remains the main concern, the political aspects of the event are crucial. Both politics and sports are coming together to face the challenge, with promises of increased government support and heightened security measures. The European Championship's impact on the nation goes beyond the field, which could play a key role in uniting people.

In a week filled with barbecue nights, crisis unit speeches, and celebrations, the German politicians issue words of encouragement. The summer's most important days are shaping up to be a mix of politics and athletics – a compelling reflection of today's world.

As the clock ticks closer to the final showdown, a sense of anticipation continues to grow within the German team and fan community. The upcoming events, anchored in a time of uncertainty, promise to create a sense of togetherness and joy amidst the unrest, giving the country a reason to celebrate.

However, the path to victory is not yet guaranteed. The Bundesliga players' participation, Sané's return, and Undav's approval suggest the team is in shape. Despite the political turmoil that may linger from the past, a unified front could prevail in the tournament. The players' impressive commitment and dedication pave the way for what could be a transformative experience in German football and society. As Steinmeier and Scholz's visit marks an unprecedented involvement, their support could significantly influence these events and shape the memories of a generation.

Scholz, on the other hand, didn't fancy himself as the football guru. In contrast with his previous Chancellor, Angela Merkel, who celebrated the 2014 World Cup win in a red blazer at the Maracana and enjoyed a close relationship with former national coach Joachim Löw and Bayern Munich star Bastian Schweinsteiger, Scholz prefers to keep his distance from football. In his student days, he even scored a lowly 4 in his physical education classes.

Scholz's EM committee possesses a more emotional air. "It's best to approach the game as a team and not worry about what others think," he said. After his visit to the DFB, he went straight to the opening of the Catholic Day in Erfurt, with Neuendorf providing him a little divine support on his journey.
