Germany missing alot of personnel due to their domestic cup final yesterday, so I think we'll hold our own this match if we can improve on our performance against Belgium. Solid start so far. But a bit too much hoofball for my liking.

If you're going to support Die Nationalmannschaft and attempt to speak German in the process, get it right. It's Schweinsteiger, and the entire Bayern contingent just finished winning the Treble by winning the DFB Pokal yesterday, so they're all out. The Dortmund players were offered a break after the Champions League final against Bayern and everyone took it except for Sven Bender.

try to put it through auto correct. With the players not in the roster from Bayren Munich and Stuttgart the roster is B at best. When Deutschland has it's all stars in the lineup this team will be scary come WC time. Fur sie Deutschland der liebe.

Played the best I have seen him in a long, long time. Defense is still an adventure but hopefully won't get too exposed against CONCACAF competition

If I were Low I would not be happy at all on the plane ride home. B team or not, a number of their top people (Klose, etc) looked for lost for most of the game. Fortunately for them they have their group essntially wrapped up already.
