Midfielder Kai Havertz believes that the German national team rightfully left the World Cup.
“We didn’t expect such a result from the Spaniards, but we have to take care of ourselves. We had enough chances to win against Japan and Spain. Costa Rica gave us a chance but we didn’t take it. He turned the game around, of course it was good. We came home rightly,” he said.
