Neuer returns but Germany lose to Austria in FIFA World Cup warm-up

World champions Germany have fallen to a shock 2-1 defeat at the hands of neighbours Austria in Saturday's friendly at Klagenfurt's Worthersee Stadion.

Heavy rain forced a delay to kick-off for nearly two hours, but it took Mesut Ozil only 11 minutes to break the deadlock when he capitalised on a mistake by Austria goalkeeper Jorg Siebenhandl.

"After the break, we fell into a pattern which I didn't like at all and we were far too sloppy in our game going forward".

Defender Vincent Kompany will require a scan to determine if he can play in the World Cup in Russian Federation after injuring his groin during Belgium's draw.

Germany are winless in five friendlies since completing their World Cup qualifying campaign and have only one remaining match, against Saudi Arabia, before heading to Russian Federation.

Germany will face Mexico, Sweden and South Korea in Group F.

Loew left out World Cup winners Thomas Mueller, Toni Kroos, Mats Hummels and Jerome Boateng, but the Germans only controlled the rain-delayed game for the first half an hour.

The Disney Channel alum previously revealed that the song was inspired by an incident that took place during her childhood. The Sorry Not Sorry singer has since responded to the blowback, as she tweeted: 'So sorry if anyone was offended'.

The Freiburg striker was the top scoring German in the Bundesliga, but is one of the chief candidates to be axed after making his debut for 76 minutes against Austria.

"The defeat is annoying, we did well in the first half, but we lost a lot of ball in the second half and made life hard for ourselves". Today many things were bad.

Eight minutes inot the second half, the home side leveled matters as Martin Hinteregger found the back of the net with a fine volley at the far post. "We have a lot to improve over the next 14 days".

Austria's midfielder Alessandro Schoepf celebrates scoring with his team-mates defender Aleksandar Dragovic and defender Stefan Lainer during the global friendly footbal match Austria v Germany in Klagenfurt, Austria, on June 2, 2018.

Loew tried to shake things up with a double substitution on 67 minutes, throwing on forwards Timo Werner and Marco Reus, but Austria took the lead moments later.

Both Belgium and the European champions had promising phases, Portugal's Bernardo Silva in particular creating chances at the end of the first half.
