Pages and pages again today in the German newspapers on the World Champions.
Yesterday LH 2014 flew low over the Fanmile, with of course special permission. The Lufthansa Boeing 747 - Potsdam had changed the name of the company to Fanhansa.
In today's Berlin's Tagesspiegel Lars Spannagel writes:
"Again and again people who are carrying the German flag are speaking Spanish, English or Chinese.
"Was there ever a time when so many people with different nationalities identified in such a way with Germany? Perhaps on this day they want to feel a little German.
"And anyway, what does it mean, to feel German"
And that's the theme right through the Germany media, a sense that the country has at last come of age. This is the first time that a 'united Germany' has won the World Cup.
