Germany captain Joshua Kimmich says he and his team-mates should not have "expressed political opinions" during the 2022 Fifa World Cup in Qatar. "We wanted to convey the message that Fifa is silencing teams," then head coach Hansi Flick said after the game. Speaking before Germany's upcoming Uefa Nations League games, Kimmich said he regretted making the gesture. We expressed political opinions and it took a bit away from the joy of the tournament. After all it is our duty to do our best when nominated because we are measured on results," Kimmich said.
