Match Focus: Improving Ireland Upset the Odds to Frustrate Faltering Germany For John O’Shea and Ireland, it was a “special night”. For Germany, it was the culmination of a frustrating opening to these qualifiers that left manager Jogi Loew talking about a “post-World Cup hole”.The sides' surprising 1-1 draw in Gelsenkirchen leaves Ireland joint...

Player Focus: A Year to Remember for Christoph Kramer

by Alistair Tweedale at Jumanne, Sep 9 2014 15:45
Player Focus: A Year to Remember for Christoph Kramer The overriding memorable image of Christoph Kramer is that of a disorientated youngster being helped off the pitch in the first half of a World Cup Final he wasn't even originally meant to be a part of. If that wasn't enough to endear him to the watching public (if only through sheer sympathy), then...

by Andy Brassell at Jumanne, Jul 15 2014 11:21
Team Focus: Who Are Germany's Main Rivals For Euro 2016? If Germany were fourth favourites for the World Cup behind Brazil, Spain and Argentina at the start of the tournament, then they are unlikely to occupy a similar position in the stakes for Euro 2016 – and not only due to the absence of the South American pair. Joachim Löw had not only the...

Player Focus: Mascherano Must Overcome Kroos in Sunday's Midfield Battle

by Ben McAleer at Ijumaa, Jul 11 2014 16:25
Player Focus: Mascherano Must Overcome Kroos in Sunday's Midfield Battle It is strange to think that in six games at the 2014 World Cup Argentina have scored just 8 goals, 1 of which was a Sead Kolasinac own goal. Boasting Lionel Messi, Sergio Agüero and Gonzalo Higuaín - 3 players who netted a combined 292 league goals since the 2010 World Cup - many expecte...

Match Focus: 5 Talking Points from Brazil's 7-1 Loss to Germany

by Alistair Tweedale at Jumatano, Jul 9 2014 15:02
Match Focus: 5 Talking Points from Brazil's 7-1 Loss to Germany A nation is in shock. The people of Brazil, a country in which social and economic problems have taken something of a backseat to the main event that is a World Cup in the home of football, have been overwhelmed by hosting the biggest football tournament on the planet. There was, before Neymar's com...

Player Focus: Why Germany's False 5 is World Number One

by James Horncastle at Jumatatu, Jul 7 2014 15:58
Player Focus: Why Germany's False 5 is World Number One Ball-boys can expect a call from Manuel Neuer. He won’t shout at them like Joe Hart did during England’s 2-1 defeat to Italy in Manaus. Instead, every now and again when the play is up the other end and he hasn’t been involved for a while, the Germany goalkeeper will ask the kid be...

Team Focus: Lahm Return to Right-Back Would Restore Germany's Balance

by Andy Brassell at Jumatano, Jul 2 2014 11:03
Team Focus: Lahm Return to Right-Back Would Restore Germany's Balance As Brazil could tell you, favouritism creates a certain type of accelerated expectation. Ostensibly, it seems misleading to call Germany’s struggles against Algeria a close shave. They were never behind in the game, and had a competition-high 28 shots at goal. Yet it wasn’t comfortable a...

by Ben McAleer at Jumamosi, Jun 21 2014 09:00
Team Focus: Germany's Adaptation of the 'False 9' Can Steer Them to Glory Taking Miroslav Klose to the World Cup as the only striker was always going to be a risk for Germany, but it was one that Joachim Löw was willing to take. The decision to overlook Mario Gomez, Max Kruse and Kevin Volland was perhaps a controverisal one and has the potential to backfire.Despite ...

by Ben McAleer at Alhamisi, Nov 14 2013 15:30
Player Focus: Stefan Kießling Deserving of Germany Recall “Joachim Loew has recently stated that he hasn’t planned for me to be involved, so I’m not really thinking about it,” Stefan Kießling exclusively told WhoScored back in April when asked about his international future.
