Joachim Low sees his experimental German side open Confederations Cup campaign with a win

Joachim Low's much-changed Germany opened their Confederations Cup campaign with a 3-2 victory over Australia in Sochi.

The world champions did not bring the likes of Toni Kroos, Manuel Neuer and Thomas Muller with them to Russia, but Low's experimental team proved to be more-than-adequate replacements for this test as Lars Stindl, captain Julian Draxler and Leon Goretzka all found the net.
