A picture on the German Football Association's website may have accidentally revealed Germany's final World Cup squad.
Has the German Football Association accidentally revealed coach Joachim Löw's final 23-man squad for the World Cup?
On the German Football Association's website, a poster with 23 German internationals could be found until recently. The only players from the current preliminary 27-man squad, who aren't on the poster, are Kevin Trapp, Sebastian Rudy, Jonathan Tah and Nils Petersen.

But is the poster really an indication that they are the players who will be axed from the World Cup squad? Not according to the German Football Association general manager Oliver Bierhoff.
"That must be a mistake. I will have to check it out again. But that must not happen, and it makes me really angry. But is isn't an indication," he said at a press conference according to various German media.
Time will tell if the players on the poster will match the actual final World Cup squad.
