MUNICH, Germany (Reuters) -There were no surprises in Germany's lineup for their Euro 2024 Group A tournament opener on home soil against Scotland on Friday with coach Julian Nagelsmann fielding the same team as in their final warm-up game last week.

He has banked on the experience of goalkeeper Manuel Neuer as well as Toni Kroos and captain Ilkay Gundogan in midfield.
