Mesut Ozil: 'World Cup win would be Joachim Low's reward'

Germany playmaker Mesut Ozil thinks that a World Cup win would be a deserving "reward" for coach Joachim Low.

Arsenal playmaker Mesut Ozil has claimed that the whole Germany squad want to win the World Cup for coach Joachim Low.

The Gunners' attacking midfielder praised his national boss and thinks that victory in Brazil would be Low's 'reward' for the style of football he has instilled in his side.

Ozil told Arsenal's official website: "He's introduced a totally new German national team - one that is really respected all over the world.

"Wherever we go, I think opponents are reluctant to play us because we are very strong. If you look at the German team over the last couple of years, you can see that we have continuously played excellent football.

"I hope he will finally be rewarded because in the past we've lost in the semi-finals or final and to lose when you are so close is always sad."

Germany begin their campaign against Portugal on Monday.
