"And then '74 as I mentioned and then the 1990 world cup was our team was the team of the reunification you know, so we were the team for both sides of Germany so now, you know throughout the last 16 years, we've melted together. And now comes the next milestone"

Jurgen Klinsmann is describing the reunification of Germany in 1990. This was a significant event in German history, as it marked completion of the Cold War and the reunification of East and West Germany. The 1990 World Cup was the first time that a unified German team competed in the tournament, and it was a sign of the reunification of the two countries. Klinsmann is stating that since then, the two sides of Germany have actually been gradually melting together, which the next milestone is the Euro 2016 tournament. This tournament will be the very first time that a unified German group has competed in the tournament since the reunification, and it is a symbol of the development that has actually been made in the last 16 years.
