Weidenfeller backs Mario Gotze to bounce back from World Cup disappointment

The 37-year-old Borussia Dortmund shot-stopper spoke on a variety of topics including Mario Gotze’s World Cup setback….
This time around four years ago, Roman Weidenfeller and his Germany team-mates were lifting the World Cup in Brazil after overcoming Argentina in the finals through an extra-time goal from Mario Gotze.

Having made almost 350 appearances for the Bundesliga giants while claiming two league titles with the club, few goalkeepers have had the career that Weidenfeller has enjoyed over the years.

It has been 16 years now since Weidenfeller moved to Dortmund as a possible replacement for Jens Lehmann who subsequently moved to Arsenal in 2003. Since then, there has been no looking back for the Diez-born Weidenfeller who has spent all 20 years of his professional football career in the Bundesliga.
