The German national team is fine following an emergency landing in Edinburgh on their way back from Iceland.
Following Germany's 4-0 win over Iceland, the KlasJet flight left Reykjavik at 2 a.m. on its way to Frankfurt, but got into trouble three miles west of Arbroath.
Between Dundee and Arbroath, the plane had to make an abrupt turn before landing at 4 a.m. in the Scottish capital, which took 20 minutes.
"First and foremost, safety," the team tweeted in German. As a precaution, make a safe stopover in Edinburgh. Individual onward and return journeys are planned from there."
The team was fine, according to a second post. The plane on which the German players had been flying did not take off again.
