The answer. I think it’s 50-50%. Spain has been the best team in the tournament through the four matches played so far. We were probably the second most convincing team. So I think the whole of Europe is excited about this match.

But we feel ready, we are not afraid. We have a lot of experience in our team and we want to go to the next round. It may be an advantage for us that Spain has not yet suffered during the tournament, dominating all four matches.

We’ll see how they react if we also take possession of the ball for some time. We have already suffered in the games against Switzerland and Denmark, and I think that made us stronger.

S. What does this European Cup represent on a personal level for Jay oshendogan? I imagine it’s special because of the responsibility that comes with being the leader of Germany.

R. I couldn’t be prouder. Wearing a captaincy badge during a tournament at home is very special. Sometimes even the best player in the world cannot experience it throughout his career. So far, the atmosphere is amazing. I see a lot of great videos of fans celebrating on social media.

S. How important is it for the proper functioning of Germany to share the midfield with Toni Kroos,a football player who speaks the same’ football ‘ language as you?

R. Tony is crucial to our game. He always remains calm, no matter what the situation is on the pitch. You don’t need to talk to him a lot on the court, because we always know what the other will do. We have a lot of respect for each other, and I am very glad that he decided to return to the national team for this tournament.

But, on the other hand, it is also important to protect him: he is 16 years old, and next season he will turn 17. His head should always be free, he should not feel any pressure; this will be the task of everyone in the club in the future, to get the best out of him.
