He is on his way to full recovery so he will play."The Germans have been caught a bit off guard by the cold front that has suddenly swept in, with striker Thomas Mueller attending a news conference on Tuesday in his shorts and admitting he had not expected it to be just a few degrees above freezing.Germany, who top Group D after their 4-0 win over Australia, take on Serbia in Port Elizabeth before facing Ghana in their last group match on June 23 at Soccer City.(Editing by Jon Bramley)
