Joachim Löw confirmed his final 23-man squad for the 2018 Football World Cup
Goalkeeper Manuel Neuer – who hadn’t played a competitive game since September until the friendly loss to Austria on Saturday – was included in the squad for the tournament in Russia.
After months of speculation, Bayern Munich’s Manuel Neuer will travel to Russia as Germany’s number one goalkeeper despite having only come back from an eight-month injury lay-off in Saturday’s friendly defeat to Austria.
