Low Slams Fans For Booing Ilkay Gundogan In Germany Win
Ilkay Gundogan, who recently met Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdogan, was booed once more by Germany fans during the 2-1 win over Saudi Arabia.
Joachim Low has hit out at Germany fans for again booing midfielder Ilkay Gundogan.
Manchester City playmaker Gundogan was jeered by supporters during last Saturday's 2-1 loss to Austria following his meeting with Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
Whistles rained down once more in Leverkusen on Friday when Gundogan came on as a second-half substitute during the 2-1 win over Saudi Arabia, despite Low gesturing for the masses to applaud.
Arsenal star Ozil did not feature against Saudi Arabia but Low is keen to close the issue with Germany's World Cup defence to begin in nine days against Mexico.
"He's a member of the national team," Low said, speaking to ARD about Gundogan.
"That [booing] doesn't help anyone."
