LOW THRILLED WITH YOUNG SIDE
Germany boss Joachim Low is thrilled with the progress his young squad have made as the world champions seek to advance to the Confederations Cup final at Mexico’s expense.
Low will be seeking a 101st victory in his 151st game in charge of Germany when they face Mexico in Sochi, and believes his team have already excelled by reaching the last four in Russia.
“I’m really happy to be in the semi-final with this side,” Low told a press conference on Wednesday. “Our main aim is always to be one of the last four teams in any competition. And you couldn’t necessarily expect that from this team.
“Nonetheless, they did it, and did so by overcoming a few different hurdles in the tournament.
