The DFB team was able to look forward to a surprising guest before the World Cup qualifying. HSV keeper Heuer Fernandes helped out in training for the national team.
The German national team has surprisingly grown after the 2-1 win against Romania. Goalkeeper Daniel Heuer Fernandes from the second division Hamburger SV was a guest at the training of the DFB team on Saturday morning.
The 28-year-old represented the ailing Manuel Neuer (adductor problems) and Marc-Andre ter Stegen, who did not participate in the training after his work in the World Cup qualification. This year Fernandes didn’t have far, because Hansi Flick’s team trained on the HSV club grounds.
