The Germany national football team (German: Die deutsche Fußballnationalmannschaft or just Die Mannschaft) is the mens football team that has represented Germany in international competition since 1908.[4] It is governed by the German Football Association (Deutscher Fußball-Bund), founded in 1900.[8][9] Ever since the DFB was reinaugurated in 1949 the team has represented the Federal Republic of Germany. Under Allied occupation and division, two other separate national teams were also recognised by FIFA: the Saarland team representing the Saarland (1950–1956) and the East German team representing the German Democratic Republic (1952–1990). Both have been absorbed along with their records[10][11] by the current national team. The official name and code "Germany FR (FRG)" was shortened to "Germany (GER)" following the reunification in 1990. Germany is one of the most successful national teams in international competitions, having won a total of four World Cups (1954, 1974, 1990, 2014), three European Championships (1972, 1980, 1996),[8] and one Confederations Cup (2017). They have also been runners-up three times in the European Championships, four times in the World Cup, and a further four third-place finishes at World Cups.[8] East Germany won Olympic Gold in 1976.[12] Germany is the only nation to have won both the mens and womens World Cups and after the 2017 Confederations Cup it became one of the only four nations - alongside Brazil, Argentina and France - to win all three most important mens titles recognized by FIFA: the World Cup, the Confederations Cup, and the Olympic tournament. They have also won their respective continental championship (Copa América for Argentina and Brazil, and UEFA European Championship for France and Germany).[13][14] At the end of the 2014 FIFA World Cup, Germany earned the highest Elo rating of any national football team in history, with a record 2205 points.[15] Germany is also the only European nation that has won a FIFA World Cup in the Americas. The current manager of the national team is Joachim Löw.
