- We have nothing to be afraid of. It’s necessary to preserve dignity and professionalism. The game between Germany and the USA must be fair. As for my future, I’m not going to leave the national team after the match against Ghana no matter what, - informed Bento L’equipe.

- Both sides will struggle for victory, - stated the USA manager Jürgen Klinsmann

Germany head coach Joachim Löw agrees with that:

- There’s no agreement between us. We can play attacking football, so why shouldn’t we do that? Germany will do everything to win the game.

It should be also mentioned that FC Dynamo Kyiv midfielder Miguel has a chance to make his 52nd appearance for the national team.
