Serge Gnabry: Germany has big plans for the World Cup

Added at:

Serge Gnabry spoke about Germany's expectations form 2022 World Cup in his recent interview with FIFA.

How would you describe Germany’s group with Spain, Japan and Costa Rica?
We know that our last game against Spain wasn’t very good [a 6-0 defeat in the UEFA Nations League in 2020]. I wouldn’t underestimate Japan. They’ve got a lot of players who play at the highest level, for example in the Bundesliga or in the Premier League. I’m looking forward to that game. Costa Rica are maybe the underdogs but at a tournament everyone gives their all. We need to approach every game with the same respect and motivation and perform to the best of our ability.

Are you looking forward to making your World Cup debut?
Yes, I’m very excited to be playing at my first World Cup at the age of 27. Unfortunately it’s taken a while but I’m looking forward to the tournament and I hope we’ll be successful.

What are your expectations for the Germany team in Qatar?
A successful tournament. We have big plans. As I said earlier, the European Championship didn’t go very well for us, so we want to make up for it at the World Cup. We’ve got the quality and we’ve recovered from that difficult tournament. That’s why we’re going to Qatar with confidence and the clear aim of being successful.
