He also took Cameroon to the final of the Confed Cup in 2003. The team lost this to France after a golden goal, having previously beaten the reigning world champions Brazil. The collaboration ended on 18 November 2004, a few hours after a 3-0 defeat against the German national football team. One of the reasons for the parting of the ways was the differences that had persisted for months due to allegedly outstanding salary and bonus payments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During his time as an active coach, Winfried Sch\u00e4fer took over other teams such as the Thailand national team, the Jamaica national team and coached teams in Azerbaijan, Dubai and Iran.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Winfried Sch\u00e4fer is married, has two children and has lived with his family near Karlsruhe for more than 25 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In his talks, Winfried Sch\u00e4fer shows how to work successfully with intercultural teams.
