TEAMS: France v Germany: Mertesacker & Kos Dropped, Ozil Starts
France take on Germany in this evening’s first World Cup quarter final and it’s a game that has plenty of Arsenal interest.
However, several of the players will be watching from the sidelines as only Mesut Ozil starts the match out of the Arsenal contingent.
Surprisingly, Per Mertesacker has been left out by Germany coach Joachim Low so he joins the fit-again Lukas Podolski among the substitutes.
Olivier Giroud and Laurent Koscielny also miss out for France, as Didier Deschamps opts for Antoine Greizmann and Mamadou Sakho.
Germany
Neuer – Lahm, Boateng, Hummels, Howedes – Schweinsteiger, Khedira – Muller, Kroos Ozil – Klose
France
Lloris; Debuchy, Varane, Sakho, Evra; Cabaye, Matuidi; Valbuena, Pogba, Griezmann; Benzema.
