Burkardt replaces injured Stiller in Germany squad
Mainz's Jonathan Burkardt scores his side's second goal during the German Bundesliga soccer match between FSV Mainz 05 and Bayer Leverkusen at Mewa Arena. Arne Dedert/dpa Midfielder Angelo Stiller has pulled out of the Germany squad for their Nations League Final Four and has been replaced by striker Jonathan Burkardt. The German football federation said in a statement on Tuesday that Stiller's injured ankle had not healed enough and he would not travel. Advertisement Stiller rushed back to play in the German Cup final won by his club side VfB Stuttgart on Saturday but playing on the ankle risked his chances of turning out for Germany. Burkardt's late call-up comes after criticism of coach Julian Nagelsmann for overlooking him in the original squad despite his 18 Bundesliga goals this term. Germany, who gather on Friday, face Portugal in the semi-final in Munich on June 4. France take on Spain in the other semi in Stuttgart on June 5, before the Munich final on June 8.

Torsten Silz/dpa Jonathan Tah's completed move to Bayern Munich looks like a matter of time, German media reports said on Saturday. The Germany defender's deal is up at Bayer Leverkusen on June 30 and the 29-year-old is poised to join their Bundesliga rivals, who are short of centre backs having let Eric Dier join Monaco. Advertisement The reports said the 29-year-old would undergo a medical and sign a four-year deal in the coming weeks. It is as yet unclear whether he could join Bayern for the Club World Cup given his Leverkusen deal officially covers the first two weeks of the tournament in the United States. Tah had also been linked in the media with Barcelona.

😳 What's going on here? Mainz lead by just one despite scoring four
This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence. You can read the original version in 🇩🇪 here. 1. FSV Mainz 05 is really going for it today. Although they have a tough opponent in runner-up Bayer Leverkusen, the 05ers have been stepping on the gas pedal with both feet since the first minute and have already managed to get the ball past Hradecky four times. Nevertheless, the score is only 1:0. What's going on?! The VAR is at it again. Both Amiri's goal in the 18th minute and Lee's goal in the 30th minute were (rightly) ruled out by the video referee. In the 33rd minute, when Hanche-Olsen pushed the ball over the line, Cologne's Keller had something to complain about. Leverkusen goalkeeper Hradecky had already touched the ball beforehand. A complete breakdown for Henriksen's team?Not at all! Just two minutes later, Paul Nebel put FSV in the lead after all, four goals later. This time also guaranteed without VAR. The Mainz team is really on a roll today 📈💪. 📸 Pau Barrena - 2025 Getty Images

Soccer-Bayern's Kompany ready to catch some z's after Bundesliga title win
FILE PHOTO: Soccer Football - Bundesliga - Bayern Munich v 1. FSV Mainz 05 - Allianz Arena, Munich, Germany - April 26, 2025 Bayern Munich coach Vincent Kompany REUTERS/Gintare Karpaviciute /File Photo BERLIN (Reuters) - Bayern Munich coach Vincent Kompany wants nothing more than a good night's sleep after his team won the Bundesliga title last week with two matches left to play. The Belgian, in his first season at the club, said the constant preoccupation with the next match during the season did not really allow him to really enjoy the simple pleasures. "Sleep, really sleep," Kompany said in a club interview when asked what he was most looking forward to after the title win. "You constantly have the pressure of the next game. You achieve something but then you have to start building for the next achievement." It was by no means an easy domestic season for Bayern and Kompany, with the club facing stiff competition from last year's champions Bayer Leverkusen, who also eliminated the Bavarians in the German Cup. Bayern were also eliminated by Italy's Inter Milan in the Champions League quarter-finals. "Sometimes you have these moments with the family during the year, but then your head is somewhere else," Kompany said. "Now in the next few weeks I will leave some of that behind. But you can only do that after winning." (Reporting by Karolos Grohmann; editing by Philippa Fletcher)
