Euro 2020 preview: Germany – Kai Havertz, Toni Rudiger and Timo Werner

Rudiger has also been outstanding in recent months and he was much missed in the heavy defeat to Spain. The 28-year-old, like Werner and Havertz appearing at his first European Championships, should complement Mats Hummels well in the heart of the Germany defence.
