Bastian Schweinsteiger to play last game for Die Mannschaft against Finland

Bastian Schweinsteiger will bring down the curtains on an illustrious career with the German national team in their friendly against Finland in Monchengladbach tomorrow night. The midfielder, who made his debut for Die Mannschaft in 2004 against Hungary (a game Rudi Voller’s side lost 2-0), has earned 120 caps for the national team, and will captain the side in his final international appearance at Stadion IM Borussia Park. Low is then expected to appoint the country’s next skipper after the game, with Manuel Neuer and Jerome Boateng expected to be the favourites to take over the armband.
