Germany defender Boateng could help send brother home

Germany defender Jerome Boateng admits to having a few mixed feelings ahead of today’s World Cup clash with Ghana.

After keeping Cristiano Ronaldo quiet as Germany cruised to a 4-0 win over Portugal, Boateng is once again set to start at right back, with Philipp Lahm keeping his place as a defensive midfielder.

However, it is not so much his position which is causing Boateng such heartache, but the fact he will be up against his brother Kevin-Prince Boateng and his father’s homeland, a country he has yet to visit in person.
