Germany B (or Germany A2) is a secondary team of the Germany national football team, used to try out and develop players for potential inclusion in the first team. The team, which has not been active since 2006, can play against other nations' B-teams, or against full national teams, but its matches are not considered full internationals.
The team was known as Team 2006, as it was the development team for the 2006 FIFA World Cup, which was hosted in Germany.
