The 4:2 against Costa Rica was probably the last game in the DFB jersey for Thomas Müller.

The Bayern player expressed himself emotionally and with a clear tendency immediately after the World Cup.

“I don't know exactly how this is going to go either.

If that was my last game for Germany, I would like to say a few words to all the German football fans who have accompanied me over the years: It was an enormous pleasure.

Dear people, thank you very much.«

And further: “We have had incredible moments together.

In every game, I tried to keep my heart on the pitch and gave it my all.

Sometimes there were tears of joy because of my actions, sometimes the spectators felt pain in their faces because the actions didn't work out.

But I did it with love, you can be sure of that.

I have to see everything else first.

Thanks a lot for this."

Thomas Müller has scored 44 goals in 121 international matches, ten of them at a World Cup - more than Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo.
