Germany have sacked sporting director Oliver Bierhoff after their dismal World Cup campaign.
The Germans were dumped out in the group stages for the second time in as many tournaments after picking up just four points from three games that included a shock defeat to Japan. Victory over Costa Rica in their final outing wasn't enough and they exited on goal difference.
A period of reflection is now taking place with Bierhoff the first major casualty. The 54-year-old, who scored his country's winner at Euro 96, had been involved with the national team set-up since 2004, taking up his most recent role in 2018. However the DFB have now relieved him of his duties, citing the poor results in Qatar.
