Germany in England fixture claim

Germany coach Joachim Low revealed last week the game was due to go ahead even though the Football Association had not made any announcement of the fixture.

The DFB have now said via their official website that the game will take place with a 1930 BST kick off.

The last game at the old Wembley was England's 1-0 loss to Germany in 2000.

The new stadium is set to be completed by mid-2007 after several technical setbacks and budgetary problems.

The FA have so far been unable to confirm the game will definitely take place.

Last week, an FA spokesperson told BBC Sport: "We're not in a position to announce anything, and have no plans to do so."

The FA hope to be able to stage the 2007 FA Cup final at Wembley, but will not commit themselves for fear of a repeat of last season when they were forced to shift the showpiece to Cardiff's Millennium stadium.

In October, three parties involved in the project - the FA, Wembley National Stadium Limited and developers Mulitplex - signed an agreement to settle all outstanding disputes regarding construction and payments.
