Borussia Dortmund winger Andre Schurrle has pulled out of Germany's upcoming matches due to an injury suffered over the weekend. The former Chelsea winger had a back problem following Dortmund's 2-1 victory over Mainz in their Bundesliga opener on Saturday, and the German Football Association have announced that no replacement has been named yet. Germany are due to play Finland in a friendly on Aug. 31 before opening their 2018 World Cup qualifying campaign against Norway in Oslo on Sept. 4. They are in Group C alongside Norway, Northern Ireland, Czech Republic, Azerbaijan and San Marino.
