Germany coach Jurgen Klinsmann was proud of his players after they finished their World Cup campaign with a 3-1 win over Portugal in the third-place play-off.
Klinsmann has yet to decide whether to continue in his role as Germany boss, but said that the scenes in Stuttgart made it even harder for him to walk away.
He said: "It is unbelievable what this team has achieved. Every one of them has worked so hard, I just can't find words for it,
"What I have experienced this evening has topped all of that which has happened over the last few weeks and I thought it could not be topped.
"We are all very proud and will now celebrate, but I still need a few days to try and understand it all.
"A lot has happened in the last two years. I need to come to terms with it. I just need some more time to think about it."
