“I moved to Germany when I was young and went through so many really difficult, unimaginable moments. I have encountered a lot of racism. And going through such a really difficult time, I had a lot of thoughts that one day I should get my revenge.
Germany were the reigning World Cup champions at the World Cup in Russia, but a shock loss to South Korea meant they finished bottom of their group. Son Heung Min scored the second goal in stoppage time in that meeting.
