But it was only the first part of the big account of Özil. The international champion and the 92-time German world champion of 2014 hate on Twitter. This time featured: The role of the media, the behavior of the sponsors and the German Football Association.

"Some German newspapers use my background and my photo with President Erdogan as a right-wing propaganda to advance their political agenda, why would they have used images and titles with my name as direct statements of bankruptcy in Russia? ? " Ozil. "They have not criticized my achievements, they have not criticized the teams' performance, they have only criticized my Turkish roots and respected my background, which go beyond a personal line that must never be crossed.

"Target" because of "Turkish inheritance"?



Ozil makes a "double track" on the example of Lothar Matthäus at the DFB. "Lothar Matthäus (a German honorary leader, ed) met a few days ago with another head of state (the Russian Vladimir Putin, editor D.Red.) And was hardly criticized by the media for that, "wonders Arsenal Legionnaire, 29 years old. "Despite his role at the DFB, he was not invited to publicly explain his actions, instead he continues to represent German players without being reprimanded, if the media thought I should be removed from the World Cup team, so he should surely also remove the captain's armband from his honor? Does my Turkish heritage make me a more worthy target? "

For Mercedes, l & rsquo; One of the main sponsors of the German national team, Özil also finds some critical words, alluding to the "exhaust gas scandal": I got rid of the campaigns and I canceled all promotional activities planned … It's quite ironic, as a German ministry said that their products have illegal and unauthorized software, which puts customers at risk. Thousands of their products are recalled. Although the DFB criticized me and asked to justify my actions, there was no official public statement requested by the DFB sponsor. "
