Former Germany midfielder Lothar Matthäus spoke about the role of Toni Kroos in Julian Nagelsmann's current team.
"Toni Kroos is the face of the German team, its key player and the successor of the coach's ideas. Maybe like I was in 1988 and at the 1990 World Cup. It was the right decision by Nagelsmann to bring back the position of absolute leader to the team. He is the calmest of all the players in the national team," AS quoted Matteus as saying.
