    Since joining FC Augsburg from Bayern München in the summer, Felix Götze - the little brother of Borussia Dortmund star Mario Götze - has started making a name for himself in the Bundesliga.

    However, Felix Götze admits constant comparisons to his older brother makes it difficult for him to take his own path.

    "The name has its advantages and disadvantages. But I would say that it has more disadvantages, because it's not easy to always be compared with Mario. But you get used to it over time. I have to live with it," Felix Götze told Sport1.

    The 20-year-old, who has been used as a defensive midfielder at Augsburg this season, points out that he's actually very different to his brother.

    "We've been compared many times although we play different positions. We're also two very different player types. I'm taller and better at heading, but I'm maybe not as special as he is," he said.
