1 German Sport  Football, ice hockey, handball and basketball are the most popular spectator sports in Germany.

2 German Football The German Bundesliga is one of the 5 top leages in the world,and is the most attended league . Germany is also a major factor in International football.  Bayern München is the most successful German football club, with 25 national championships, 17 National Cups and 5 European Champions titles to its credit. Germany won the FIFA World Cup in 1954, 1974, 1990 and 2014 and the UEFA European Championship in 1972 and 1980 as West Germany and in 1996 as Germany. The most iconic german game to me is the 7-1 against Brazil. The womens national team is also a world power, winning the womans world cup in 2003 and 2007 Football is the most watched and played sport in germany like many other European countries. Allianz Arena

3 German standings at time of making.
Bayern Munich is first as expected they have a good team. Rb Liepzig have shot themselves to the top the last two years. As far as I know they are a hated club by most german people. Koln and werder bremen aren’t looking good which surprised me as I know them as decent teams.

4 Ice hockey Ice hockey is one of Germany's most popular sports, although considering its importance and spectator popularity in the nation it is ranked far behind football.  The men's national team is currently ranked 9th in the world. There are many leagues but the top one is the 14 team Deutsche Eishockey Liga. It features a few NHL players.

5 Handball Germany together with Denmark are regarded as the birthplace of handball. Handball is widely regarded to be the second most popular team sport in Germany!!! It is also the second most played team sport in Germany with approximately 750,000 active registered players around the country as of 2016. The German Handball Bundesliga is considered to be the most competitive Handball professional league in the world . The most successful team in Germany is by far THW Kiel which have won 20 German titles as well as 3 Champions League titles.

6 Basketball Together with football, ice hockey and handball, basketball in Germany is among the most popular spectator sports. One of the most popular non-football athletes to come out of Germany is Dirk Nowitzki, who plays power forward for the Dallas Mavericks in the NBA. In 2007, he became the first player trained totally outside the U.S. to be named league MVP, and in 2011 led the Mavericks to their first NBA title.
