FIFA Preview: Germany vs. Mexico

CAIRO – 29 June 2017: Germany faces Mexico in the FIFA Confederation Cup semi-final this Thursday night at the Fisht Olympic Stadium in Sochi, Russia. Deciding their participation at the final, both teams seek to win Thursday’s match.

Germany qualified for semi-final as the top of group B with Germany coach Joachim Low praising his team’s performance at the pre match press conference on Wednesday.

"I'm really happy to be in the semi-final with this side, we want to make it to the final. Our players are hungry,” Low told the press.

Mexico wants to reach the final to win the title as they did in the 1999 edition. Mexico coach, Juan Osario, talked about the German team stating, "It doesn't matter if they're young or not. What really matters is how much experience they have although they are young."

Osario added, "I think being young and having experience are two different things."
The winner of the match that begins at 8:00 pm (Egypt time) will face Chile at the final next Sunday in Krestovsky Stadium.
