Although the German team lacks key players such as Musiara and Rudiger, this team still has the ability to compete for the UEFA Champions. We (Germany) have been doing well against Portugal in the past, winning almost all important matches between the two teams. Although Portugal has high-level players such as Vitinia and João Neves who have just won the Champions League with Paris Saint-Germain, the record of the confrontation and home court advantage are still good for Germany.

Ronaldo still has a great influence in the Portuguese team. He has played more than 200 games for the national team. Now at the age of 40, he is still scoring goals. Ronaldo is crucial to the team and young players regard him as a role model. Ronaldo is ambitious and may join a club after the UEFA Nations League that can participate in the Club World Cup this summer, as he hopes to add new glory to his brilliant career.

Joshua Kimmich will usher in his 100th game in the German national team on Wednesday, which is a milestone for Kimmich, and I think he has a mission that I will be happy for Kimmich if he breaks my record of 150 appearances for Germany in the future. I made my debut with the German national team at the age of 19, but I didn't really become the core of the team until I was 23. In 1984, after Franz Beckenbauer became the head coach of the German team, I made a breakthrough. Kimmich is much ahead of me, and I believe he can break my record. Kimmich is an absolute leader both on and off the court. He has a rigorous style and outstanding ability, and has not suffered major injuries so far.

As right back and midfielder, Kimmich is both world-class players, but I think he can play the most in the midfield, where he controls the rhythm of the game. When playing right back, Kimmich is not involved in the organization's offense.
