The midfielder scored the winning goal against Argentina in the 2014 final and insists he is even more mature and ready to do the same again in Russia
Mario Gotze insists he has the "qualities" to help Germany retain their World Cup title in Russia later this year after falling out of favour at international level.
Gotze scored the winner in the World Cup final four years ago, striking deep into extra-time to secure Germany a 1-0 triumph over Argentina.
At that time, Gotze appeared to have the world at his feet and be well on the way to stardom at the age of 22, having just enjoyed a solid debut campaign with Bayern Munich.
