Goal-scorer Bastian Schweinsteiger has said Germany need fear nobody on the international stage after their impressive 3-2 win over Brazil as rising star Mario Goetze shone against the South Americans.

Even with chief play-maker Mesut Ozil left in Spain to recover from Real Madrid's recent tour, Germany's young guns rose to the challenge and downed the Brazilians as the teams shared five second-half goals. "It was a good international match between two top teams and it has shown that we don't need to hide from anyone at this level," said Bayern Munich's Schweinsteiger.

"We wanted to put the Brazilians under pressure and we did just that."
