I remember when the DFB was a laughing stock back in the 90s. Provincial, corrupt, lazy. Of course it became that way because of arrogance and officials more interested in their fiefdom-building than anything else.
But over the last 10 years the DFB has been praised nearly universally, they saved German football, German football is the role model of the world now, we'll dominate forever etc.. People scoff and shook their head about the 'dark old days'. Of course all these officials - from Löw to the office manager - think that they're the reason for why German football is so great. They're high on their own supply. This World Cup is just a minor issue, an accident, one they'd rather sweep under the rug. And of course..their arrogance and complacency has basically taken us full circle.
