Kroos writes farewell message

Spain came away with a 2-1 victory after extra time, officially knocking out Germany in the quarterfinals and ending Kroos’ football career.

The veteran midfielder announced in May that he would retire at the end of Euro 2024.

“So that’s it,” Kroos wrote on his Instagram account. “But before I take a break and at least try to realise what happened over the last 17 years, I don’t want to miss the opportunity to say thank you to everyone, accepting me how and who I am.”

The 2014 World Cup winner went on to thank his fans, clubs, coaches and teammates, as well as his friends and family.

“This success wouldn’t have been possible without you,” he added.

Overall, Kroos amassed 34 titles for his clubs and Germany.

Kroos played a total of 114 matches for his country.
