Germany midfielder Ilkay Gundogan spoke about the episode that almost led to a serious injury in the Euro 2024 opening match against Scotland (5-1). Toward the end of the first half, Ryan Porteous flew dangerously into Gundogan's supporting leg, for which he received a straight red card.

I'm glad I was able to become a playmaker for my teammates," said the German captain.
