Goretzka nets on Germany return to down Italy in Nations League
21.03.25 / 08:19
Bayern Munich midfielder Goretzka glanced home the decisive goal from Joshua Kimmich's corner in the 76th minute as Germany came from behind to win the first leg of the tie in Milan.
Goretzka had last played for Germany in 2023 but was recalled to his national team by Julian Nagelsmann for the two matches with Italy, and it proved to be a wise decision.
The 30-year-old won Germany a tight match at the San Siro which had been delicately poised thanks to Sandro Tonali's early opener for the hosts and substitute Tim Kleindienst's 49th-minute header from another brilliantly delivered Kimmich cross.
Whichever country wins the two-legged tie between Italy and Germany will also earn the right to host the finals stage of the Nations League in June.
