Germany’s Euro 2024 preparations were dealt another ignominy as they were humiliated in a friendly with Austria.

Sent off: Sané 49′

Marcel Sabitzer put the hosts ahead shortly before the half-hour mark by squeezing a shot past Kevin Trapp at his near post.

Things went from bad to worse for Die Mannschaft as they were reduced to 10 men when Leroy Sané was sent off for lashing out at Philipp Mwene.

Julian Nagelsmann’s side saw their misery compounded late on as Christoph Baumgartner raced clear and chipped a second for the hosts.

The result continues a less than perfect run for Germany, who have lost six of their 11 games throughout 2023 ahead of hosting the Euros.
