Germany B (or Germany A2) is a secondary team of the Germany national football team, used to try out and develop players for potential inclusion in the first team. The team, which has not been active since 2006, can play against other nations' B-teams, or against full national teams, but its matches are not considered full internationals.
The team was known as Team 2006, as it was the development team for the 2006 FIFA World Cup, which was hosted in Germany.
Team 2006edit
In 2000, Germany won the contest to host the 2006 World Cup.[1] After the team was knocked out in the first round of Euro 2000, the German Football Association decided to form Team 2006, a development team for young players, with the hope of producing a squad that could succeed at the 2006 tournament.[2] The team played ten fixtures between 2002 and 2005, with four wins, four draws and two defeats.
