Schweinsteiger stands by camaraderie comments

Germany vice-captain Bastian Schweinsteiger has explained his recent remarks about the squad at Euro 2012 — and hopes they will be taken in the right context.

Schweinsteiger recently complained that not everybody on the bench in Poland and Ukraine appeared pleased when Germany scored.

And the midfielder felt that at his club side Bayern Munich there was a stronger sense of camaraderie. In attempting to clarify the comments, Schweinsteiger said today: “I don’t want anything bad, I just want that we get better and that the very last cog turns as well so that we can win against the big nations.
