😬 Dangerous encounter: Germany stars meet venomous snake | OneFootball

After the Swiss national team had already marked a certain area in their team camp as a "snake area" before the World Cup to warn players and staff, the DFB stars have now also had their first encounter with the venomous animals. 

Germany captain Joshua Kimmich revealed at the press conference that the players came across a not entirely harmless reptile yesterday. 

"We saw a snake yesterday and were told it was venomous. If you get bitten, you have to go to the hospital. I don’t think you die, but it’s definitely dangerous. I have the feeling that if you step on a snake like that, it could end badly," the Bayern star told the media representatives present. 

Although fortunately nothing happened to the DFB stars, Kimmich stressed that he has respect for the local residents. After all, people in Germany simply aren’t used to encounters like this.
