Joachim Loew has slammed Germany fans who booed Manchester City midfielder Ilkay Gundogan during Friday’s 2-1 World Cup warm-up victory over Saudi Arabia.
Gundogan caused a political storm last month, along with Arsenal playmaker Mesut Ozil, by meeting Turkey president Recep Tayyip Erdogan and handing over a Manchester City shirt signed to “my president”.
“The fact that a national player is booed like that helps nobody. He took a picture, okay, but he has addressed it with the press and underlined his support for German values.”Loew said after the last World Cup warm-up friendly.
