gait Thomas Muller from world Cup just like the reverse of the saying because he actually experienced a glorious phase before before suffering at the end of his career.
When Miroslav Klose dreamed of breaking Ronaldo’s record as the top scorer in the World Cup, he was immediately closely attacked by his young man named Thomas Muller.
Klose, who has played for Germany since the 2002 World Cup, broke Ronaldo’s record at the 2014 World Cup with his 16th goal. But at the same time, Muller scored 10 goals in the World Cup.
In detail, Muller has always scored five goals in the two editions of the World Cup in which he participated, namely in 2010 and 2014. At the time, Muller had not even officially turned 25.
In addition to his fantastic goalscoring record, Muller has also experienced the beauty of lifting the World Cup trophy. In the 2014 edition, Muller and his friends won after beating Argentina in the final.
The brilliant start to Muller’s World Cup career went awry. The name Muller is the favorite to break the record for top scorer at the World Cup, because he is only six goals behind Klose and is still young, suddenly losing his strength.
Muller and Germany were powerless at the 2018 World Cup when he was 28 years old. Muller failed to score and Germany were eliminated in the group stage.
Four years later, Muller and Germany returned on a revival mission. Muller this time became one of the oldest players in the German national team.
But in reality, Muller’s journey ended in bitterness once again, just like in the 2018 edition. Muller once again failed to add to his collection of goals and Germany were eliminated in the group stage.

Considering Muller is already 33 years old, it’s hard to see Muller returning as part of Der Panzer at the World Cup in the next four years.
Furthermore, Germany continues to produce potential young players in attack which could make it difficult for Muller to break into the German squad in the future.
