Dario Sits could clearly have been part of Germany’s list for their last two matches in the group stage of the Nations League. The only problem? The 20-year-old is Latvian and has absolutely no right to play for Germany.
It’s a nice little blunder that we’re telling you this Saturday. The latter is to the credit of the German football federation, which made an error in revealing the list of 23 players included for the last gathering of the group stage of the Nations League. Indeed, in the group presented on the web, there was the name of a young 20-year-old attacker, a certain Dario Sits.
The latter could therefore have made his debut for the selection. But there is a problem, and not the least: Sits is not German. He is Latvian. Better than that, the Parma player, loaned to Helmond Sport, learned his lessons among the young people of his country, from the U16s to the professionals. The explanations put forward by the German federation reveal that it was in reality a computer error, linking Sits to the selection due to an error in a database.
On social networks, it was the Latvian federation which was able to address the blunder. “We appreciate your interest, but the flight from Dario Sits to Riga is already booked”they wrote on X. The Germans then responded with an ‘Oops’ GIF, preferring to laugh at this little incident, ultimately without consequences. First in its group, Germany only needs a small point to validate its ticket for the Final 8 of the Nations League and will face Bosnia and Hungary, on November 16 and 19, to try to win. ‘get.
