The host Germany will kick-start UEFA European Championship, Euro Cup 2024, on June 15 (India time) when they lock horns with Scotland.
Germany are part of Group A, which also have Hungary, Switzerland.
Germany coach Julian Nagelsmann's shakeup of the squad in March seems to have had the desired effect. Nagelsmann inherited a team low in confidence when he took over from the fired Hansi Flick last September.
Germany had lost its previous three games and failed to win any of its previous five. Nagelsmann had a rocky start with a friendly win over the United States followed by a draw against Mexico, then defeats to Turkey and Austria.
A radical shakeup by the German manager saw top established players -- Leon Goretzka, Mats Hummels, Niklas Sle, Emre Can and Julian Brandt -- out of the squad.
Germany will be lead by Real Madrid star Toni Kroos.
