Low to test youngsters against Sweden

Borussia Dortmund's Marcel Schmelzer, 22, and teenager Mario Goetze plus Mainz 05 pair Lewis Holtby and Andre Schuerrle, both 20, were included in the squad for the November 17 friendly away to Sweden after a sparkling start to the season.

Low, who guided the youngest German World Cup squad in 76 years to third place in South Africa, also recalled Dortmund's Mats Hummels, 21 and Kevin Grosskreutz, 22, who have one cap each.

"The game in Sweden is a good opportunity to give a chance to players with great potential who have been in the spotlight lately and (who) fit our overall philosophy," said Low.
