Friendlies: We allowed Brazil to dominate us in 0-1 loss: German Kroos

Midfielder Toni Kroos

Toni Kroos pointed the finger at his Germany teammates following defeat by Brazil. Kroos is the latest World Cup winner to berate the Germans for a below-par performance after Gabriel Jesus' first-half winner sealed Brazil's 1-0 friendly win on Tuesday in Berlin.

After Jerome Boateng fumed that "everything" needed improving following Friday's 1-1 draw with Spain, Kroos again put the boot in. "We had some players on the pitch who had the opportunity to show themselves at this level - they did not take it," Kroos complained. "We allowed ourselves to be bossed around and then we saw that we're not as good as we're always told we are - and perhaps some of us think we are. That was clearly not enough from many of us."
