Germany’s 2014 World Cup winners — Where are they now? André Schürrle
Few substitutes have ever made a greater impact in a World Cup final than André Schürrle. Known for his pace, direct running, and ability to change games off the bench, Schürrle delivered one of the defining moments of Germany’s 2014 triumph. Although his playing career ended earlier than many expected, his contribution to German football history remains unforgettable.
Schürrle was Germany’s ultimate impact substitute throughout the tournament. He scored twice against Brazil in the unforgettable 7-1 semifinal before producing perhaps the most important assist in German football history. In extra time of the World Cup final, Schürrle burst down the left wing and delivered the cross that Mario Götze volleyed home for the winning goal against Argentina. His pace and energy consistently changed matches whenever Löw called upon him.
