2002 played all games, Germany drew with Ireland and lost to Brazil, but won the rest (5).

2006 played all games, won all except a draw in the quarters and a semifinal loss (5)

2010 played all games, Germany lost against Serbia and Spain, didn't feature in the 3rd place playoff win (4)

2014 featured only in 4 matches, only drew against Ghana (3)

That means 17 games.
