The final DFB training session before the European Championships is always held inside the team's private quarters.

The DFB has revealed the timetable for the festivities surrounding the European Championship's group games. National players won't train at the stadiums; instead, they'll rehearse in their team quarters until the conclusion.

The Germany soccer team has no plans to conduct final training sessions in Munich, Stuttgart, and Frankfurt before their group matches. Instead, national coach Julian Nagelsmann is asking for practice sessions on the day before each match against Scotland, Hungary, and Switzerland, at 11:00 am, which will be held on the team's base in Herzogenaurach.

As per the DFB schedule for the group stage at the domestic European Championship, the players will then travel to the stadiums by bus following their final training sessions. Nagelsmann and a team member will make statements during the UEFA press conferences in the venues later on the day before the games.

After the last pre-tournament friendly against Greece on Friday (8:45 pm/RTL), the coach will give the national players time off until Sunday evening. Upon their return to the EM quarters in Franconia, there will be a public training session with 4,000 spectators at the Adi Dassler Stadium on Monday.

The team's opening game will be on June 14 (9:00 pm/ZDF/Magenta TV) against Scotland, facing Hungary on June 19 (6:00 pm/ARD/Magenta TV) in Stuttgart, and ending the group stage with a match against Switzerland on June 23 (9:00 pm/ARD/Magenta TV) in Frankfurt.
