Mario Gotze, who will forever be known as the man who won the 2014 World Cup after scoring the winning goal in the final, believes the Germany team is poised for even more success in the future.
Gotze, at 22, was the youngest goalscorer in a World Cup final since 1966. He said: “We have a great squad and the next tournaments can be successful as well, but first we need to qualify for the European Championships and then go ahead. “Playing for the German team is always an honour and we can be happy that we have so many great and skillful players and a real good mixture of young guys and experienced players,” he said. The German team has also been nominated for the Laureus World Team of the Year Award after the World Cup victory and the winners of both Awards will be announced at the Laureus World Sports Awards Ceremony in Shanghai on April 15.
