Loew worries about Wolfsburg
Berlin: German World Cup winning coach Joachim Loew will keep a close eye on VfL Wolfsburg in Wednesday’s Champions League group match against Manchester United.
The 55-year-old is not only expecting a sensational win for the underdogs but he is also worried about several of his candidates for the German national team, as per reported.
Andre Schuerrle, Max Kruse and Julian Draxler could well play a vital part in their country’s upcoming Euro 2016 qualifying games against Ireland (October 8 in Dublin) and Georgia (October 11 in Leipzig) – but the trio are currently out of form.
Despite the major crisis Wolfsburg’s owner, the car giant Volkswagen, is facing due to false exhaust emissions and as a result possible cuts in future sponsorship, the club seems to be coming to a turning point on the pitch too.
The Germans originally planned to build up a sort of “VfL Germany” to develop German talents.
However, the strategy has not yet paid off.
In the middle of the crisis stands the man who was responsible for the World Cup winning assist in the 2014 World Cup final against Argentina.
Everyone remembers the 24-year-old Andre Schuerrle crossing for his teammate Mario Goetze (Bayern Munich) to hit the back of the net in Germany’s 1-0 win over the South Americans.

Gavaskar reckons Tewatia’s whirlwind knock in Sharjah (in IPL 2020) where he smashed West Indies pacer Sheldon Cottrell for five sixes in an over, gave him the confidence that he belongs to the big stage.
Speaking on Cricket Live on Star Sports, Gavaskar said, “That assault on Sheldon Cottrell in Sharjah gave him the belief to do the impossible and the confidence that he belongs here. We saw the impossible (he did with the bat) the other day as well. There’s no twitching or touching the pads (which shows a batter’s nervousness) when he bats in the death overs. He just waits for the ball to be delivered and plays his shots. He’s got all the shots in the book, but most importantly his temperament to stay cool in a crisis is brilliant.”
Gavaskar has also nicknamed the 28-year-old cricketer the ‘ice-man’ and lauded Tewatia’s ability to remain unruffled during the tense moments.
