Instead, Die Mannschaft suffered an ignominious exit in the group stage, falling to both Mexico and South Korea and finishing bottom of the group.
Fast forward four years and Hansi Flick is in charge, which a retooled side ready to reclaim Germany's place among the world's elite. Facing a group that includes fellow World Cup winners Spain, the Germans will be loath to take anyone for granted this time around.
