Germany coach Joachim Low has blended youth and experience in his team to face the USA at the RFK Stadium in Washington DC this evening.
The 53-year-old has selected both the Bender brothers, as well as the talented Julian Draxler and Andre Schurrle.
Reported Barcelona target Marc-Andre ter Stegen starts between the sticks, while a second cap is given to Bayer Leverkusen's defensive midfielder Stefan Reinartz.
However, there are a few more experienced heads named in his lineup, such as Miroslav Klose, Per Mertesacker and Lukas Podolski.
Michael Bradley returns to the United States lineup after missing the defeat to Belgium. Clint Dempsey continues as captain, with Jozy Altidore leading the line alone.
USA: Howard; Evans, Gonzalez, Besler, Beasley; Jones, Bradley; Zusi, Dempsey, F. Johnson; Altidore
Germany: Ter Stegen; L. Bender, Mertesacker, Howedes, Jansen; S. Bender, Reinartz; Schurrle, Draxler, Podolski; Klose
