Germany's Number One Hopeful Returns For Nations League Semis

The man between the posts for Germany in their Nations League semi-final against Portugal will be Barcelona's Marc-Andre ter Stegen. The news came today from national team coach Hansi Flick, who congratulated ter Stegen on his recovery from injury, praising his perseverance and tenacity.

The German national team has been through a turbulent time since their group stage exit from the World Cup 18 months ago. They have changed coaches, with Flick taking over from Low, and now look to be turning over a new leaf.

Speaking to German outlet Deutschen Presse-Agentur, Flick said "It's very good that Marc-Andre ter Stegen is coming back into the national team. He gives us additional quality and stability in this extremely important position." The coach also praised ter Stegen's leadership, which he believes will benefit the team greatly.

Despite only returning from a long injury layoff, ter Stegen is expected to start against Portugal on Thursday, June 23rd, in the Nations League semi-finals. He will be hoping to help Germany secure a place in the final four days later.

This news is a huge boost for Germany, who has been struggling to find form in recent years. With ter Stegen between the posts, they will be hoping to regain their status as a dominant force in European football.
