Germany travel to Rimini without Neuer or Brandt

Germany will have to do without their captain and goalkeeper Manuel Neuer as well as attacking player Julian Brandt in their World Cup qualifier against San Marino on Friday (20:45 CET). Neuer has pulled out of the match as he's not feeling 100 per cent, while Julian Brandt will not be available for selection against San Marino due to a stomach bug. Neither boarded the flight to Rimini with the rest of the Germany squad this afternoon.

Four days after the World Cup qualifier (next Tuesday, 20:45 CET), Die Mannschaft will face Italy in a friendly in Milan. Toni Kroos (Real Madrid), Jerome Boateng (Bayern München) and Julian Draxler (VfL Wolfsburg) will also miss this match and the qualifier against San Marino due to injuries, while André Schürrle, (Borussia Dortmund) isn’t fit enough and Mesut Özil (Arsenal) is being rested.
