BERLIN — Germany coach Hansi Flick needs his team to start winning games again quick to be sure of keeping his job ahead of next year's European Championship.

Germany sporting director Rudi Völler says the players have "an obligation to deliver" in friendly games against Japan in Wolfsburg on Saturday and France in Dortmund on Tuesday. Flick says "sometimes you don't get the successes or results that you want. That's currently the case with us."
