The president of the German FA has ramped up the pressure on coach Joachim Loew by saying he expects the national team to reach at least the semi-finals of Euro 2020. "We must, and 'Jogi' (Loew) won't like hearing this, reach the semi-finals. Perhaps even the final," Fritz Keller, president of the German Football Association said Tuesday. Germany faces holders Portugal, world champions France and a play-off winner in their three Euro 2020 group matches on home soil at Munich's Allianz Arena. He has repeatedly attempted to lower expectations in football-mad Germany by insisting the national team, currently, 15th in the FIFA world rankings is not among the favourites to win Euro 2020.
