As you know, 19-year-old Luka (Joris) Hufnagel due to injury missed European Championship Elite round, where Georgian U-19 played  brilliantly. We have previously written that 19 years before German coach Christian Ziege invited Georg Hufnagel in command, but the young footballer said he had already made his choice.

Ziege has called for the Elite round bows and, of course, was not there. The son of a German father and a Georgian mother last season played for a team with up to 19 years in “Unterhaching "and won with a score of 3: 2 against “Bayern” Munich he scored twice. Hufnagel was grown up in Munich sports academy till 16.

"Against Bayern was not after revenge, but I certainly was very motivated."

According to the trainer, "Unterhaching" wanted Luka to play in the last two matches of the third Bundesliga, but this prevented injury to the player.

Luka was asked to compare the situation in Georgian and German U-19:

"For me, Georgia is more interesting. I want to get into the national team, and the chance is greater in Georgia. "

Hufnagel was very happy that Tsintsadze’s team went through the final. Germany has less chance to go through the group because there are these following countries in the group: the Netherlands, Norway and Cyprus
