The return of the Turniermannschaft

The pre-tournament favourites, Germany did indeed reach the UEFA EURO 2008™ final, but did so in a style more reminiscent of glories past than recent achievements.

Grit
Having won over many neutral fans during the 2006 FIFA World Cup with their attacking football, which continued as Germany became the first team to book their place in the 2008 finals, it seemed business as usual in the opening 2-0 win against Poland in Klagenfurt. But four days later at the same venue, Croatia triumphed 2-1 and the Germany side that emerged from that match and made their way to the final did so with grit rather than élan. It was the return of the Turniermannschaft – the ‘tournament team’.

Efficiency
Needing a point to reach the last eight, co-hosts Austria were beaten 1-0 in Vienna in a cool display of efficiency that would not have looked out of place in the 1980s. The 3-2 quarter-final defeat of Portugal in Basel showed how Germany’s physical attributes could overcome more technically skilled opposition, something France had discovered in the 1982 and 1986 World Cups. And the semi-final victory against Turkey by the same scoreline and at the same location, was down to determination and cool finishing. Germany were finally bested by Spain but the mood was not downbeat. “I have to compliment the team for a fantastic time over the last 45 days,” said coach Joachim Löw. “We have had a lot of fun and enjoyed it, but we were very ambitious and dealt with people with respect, in and out of the team. Of course the players are disappointed now. But reaching the final is something special.”

Ballack stength
Maybe Michael Ballack would beg to differ. Having tasted defeat in the UEFA Champions League and English League Cup finals with Chelsea FC, the Germany midfielder suffered another such reverse at the Ernst-Happel-Stadion. Ballack was clearly struggling with his calf injury during the final, but that did not stop Löw praising him: “I wouldn’t like to comment on individual performances but it was good to have him there. He was a leader for our team – he represents the team and Germany very well.”

Lehmann frustration
At 31, Ballack and midfield partner Torsten Frings are well aware that time is against them ahead of the 2010 World Cup, something also on the minds of forward Oliver Neuville, 35, and 38-year-old goalkeeper Jens Lehmann, who produced his best performance of the tournament in the loss to Spain. “I am very disappointed about the final,” said Lehmann. “It was most likely my last EURO. These are my thoughts: ‘What could we have done better?’ Bad displays were followed by good ones, but unfortunately we could not keep that rhythm going into the final.”

Future
What, then, does the future hold for German football? If the stalwarts are ageing, bright talents such as Bastian Schweinsteiger and Lukas Podolski have again shone on the big stage even though their club form since the 2006 World Cup has been mixed. Striker Mario Gómez, by contrast, was unable to reproduce his goalscoring heroics for VfB Stuttgart, though at 22 he should have more opportunities. The same goes for 19-year-old playmaker Marko Marin, who just missed out on selection. Löw’s men now meet Russia, Finland, Wales, Azerbaijan and Liechtenstein in World Cup qualifying, and Löw mused: “This defeat is going to be an incentive to work hard over the next two years. Looking at the last few tournaments, we’re right at the top in Europe and the side in recent years have learned a lot. They have developed well but we know we must not lose energy and strength – we must go on working and improving.”

Fascinating duel on the flanks.

Fascinating duel on the flanks

by Wayne Harrison from Basel

Germany’s Philipp Lahm, the consummate attacking full-back, capped his fifth outing at UEFA EURO 2008™ with the last-minute winning goal that secured his country’s place in their record sixth UEFA European Championship final.

Worthy opponent
However, his direct opponent, Turkey’s adventurous right-back Sabrı Sarıoğlu, produced an equally deserving display on the night. In the end, Germany’s extra power and quality made the difference in an encounter of fine margins. But injury and suspension-stricken Turkey, and Sabri in particular, certainly proved worthy semi-finalists in what was, for the most part, a blow-for-blow match.

Wing play
Sabri’s lukewarm 63 per cent pass completion rate told only a fraction of the story of his impact on the match. Turkey’s opening goal, on 22 minutes, emanated from some cavalier forward play by the Galatasaray AS right-back when he crossed to Kazım Kazım, whose strike hit the crossbar before Uğur Boral forced the rebound past goalkeeper Jens Lehmann. Later, when Turkey levelled the match at 2-2 with just four minutes remaining, it was another Sabri delivery that set up goalscorer Semih Şentürk. On both occasions the surging Turkey right-back — who covered 9.88km in the match — got the better of Lahm, deployed on the left for Germany with Arne Friedrich on the opposite side of the defence.

Magnificent Lahm
However, the diminutive FC Bayern München player reaped his revenge when in attacking mode himself, and was a threat every time he crossed the halfway line. Only covering marginally less ground than Sabri, 9.56km in total, Lahm’s economy in possession was impressive. Only centre-back Per Mertesacker played more passes than Lahm, who registered a 76 per cent success rate, well above average for his side. Furthermore, the 24-year-old full-back delivered more balls to lone striker Miroslav Klose than any other Germany player, with three in all, including the enticing cross from the left wing that resulted in Klose heading his side 2-1 up eleven minutes from time.

Finishing touch
But it was Lahm’s final contribution to his team’s cause that mattered most. In the 90th minute, with the match poised to go to extra time and, perhaps, a penalty shoot-out, it was another Lahm foray — peeling off the touchline to weave his way into the Turkey box, play a one-two with Thomas Hitzlsperger and subtly lift the ball into the net — that sealed the fate of Sabri and his colleagues, and booked Germany’s place in Sunday’s final.

[新聞] 德意志坦克傷兵情況

2008年06月13日20:29 新浪體育

新浪體育訊　北京時間6月13日路透社消息，剛剛遭遇失敗的德國隊又遭打擊，主力邊鋒波多爾斯基腳踝受傷，能否參加小組賽最後一輪生死戰目前仍是問號。

本屆歐洲杯上波多爾斯基從鋒線後撤打左邊鋒，效果非常好，兩場比賽打進3球，包辦德國隊全部進球，與西班牙前鋒比利亞並列射手榜頭名。勒夫無奈承認說：“波多爾斯基腳踝被撞了一下，今天他沒能參加訓練。我們只能等，看看傷勢恢復情況如何，也許我們會被迫做出改變。”另一名邊鋒施魏因施泰格在比賽中吃到紅牌，下一場將被禁賽，如果波多爾斯基再不能上，勒夫會非常頭疼，

受傷的還不止波多爾斯基一人。勒夫透露延森和拉姆也遇到麻煩，不過拉姆稱自己可以在奧地利戰前複出（心疼啦哭），延森是肩膀受傷，由於在與克羅地亞的比賽中表現糟糕，他可能會被勒夫從主力陣容中拿下。(黎璐)

波弟如果真的無法出賽真的很令人擔憂，波豬姆三人不要只有一人在場上啦！！

這篇報導沒提到，Lahmy傷勢是在腳踝和小腿有出血狀況，比較起來是沒那麼嚴重但還是令人擔心啊，

目前狀況最佳的前鋒跟最穩的後衛…T T

但DFB媒體簡報卻又指出拉姆跟波弟週一應可恢復機能。希望如此…

[新聞] 克德賽後報導 – 陣型分析

2008年06月14日03:10 新浪體育
新浪體育訊　在德國隊以1-2負于克羅地亞輸掉了小組賽關鍵一役之後，針對德國隊在比賽中出現的一些問題，德國媒體開始重新反思勒夫的戰術思路和人員安排。日前，就有德國媒體對德國隊焦點位置上的球員的情況進行了分析，並向勒夫提供了一些有價值的新想法。

楊森和拉姆

由於拉姆可左可右，因此這裡要將兩個邊後衛一起來分析。與克羅地亞隊下半場的比賽中已經看出，拉姆還是更適合於左路，在那裡他也能夠製造更多的威脅，不時的插向中路給對手的防守帶來了很大的問題。此外，拉姆的防守是他的強項，他也很少下到底線傳中。拉姆這種可左可右的特點完全可以讓勒夫放棄楊森，楊森在防守上的缺陷很明顯，狀態實在太差。
解決方案：拉姆應該出任左邊後衛，而右後衛可以由弗裡茨、弗雷德里希或者維斯特曼出任，但是弗裡茨應該是最好的選擇，昨天他的表現機會並不多，但是在與波蘭隊的比賽中他攻防俱佳，發揮出色。
預測：不知道這場失敗會讓勒夫改變多少，他很有可能會在右後衛上選擇弗雷德里希。

梅策爾德

梅策爾德在傷癒之後的狀態一直沒有恢復，不僅速度很慢，而且在拼搶上也屢屢處於劣勢。他現在根本就不適合歐錦賽這樣高水準的杯賽。
解決方案：看邊後衛的選擇情況，弗雷德里希和維斯特曼也還可以出任中後衛，但是使用缺少經驗的維斯特曼還是風險太大，因此弗雷德里希應該代替梅策爾德出任首發。預測：勒夫估計不會改變目前的中衛組合，這樣的後防線對陣奧地利隊可能是足夠了，但是如果對手是葡萄牙呢？（中肯…）

巴拉克

在與克羅地亞隊的比賽中，巴拉克在與對方中場球員科瓦奇的較量上完全處於下風，沒有構成任何的威脅，失誤頻頻。但是巴拉克對於德國隊的作用是毋庸置疑的，一場比賽發揮的好壞不能說明問題，巴拉克還是我們的隊長。

弗林斯

在巴拉克表現失常的時候，弗林斯承擔起了中場防守的重任，此外，他在德國定位球體系中的作用也很明顯，弗林斯是不可替代的。

波多爾斯基

波多爾斯基毫無疑問是本屆德國隊中最有威脅的攻擊隊員，因此他成為德國隊毫無疑問的主力隊員。但是現在的問題是，他是應該出任左邊前衛還是和克洛斯搭檔鋒線呢？對陣實力不強的奧地利隊，勒夫還可以選擇將波多爾斯基放在中場，但是在四分之一決賽開始之後，勒夫就必須要找到一個真正的中場球員來解放他。下場比賽中，勒夫就應該將波多爾斯基推到前鋒線，磨合其和克洛斯的配合。施威因斯泰格在上場比賽替補出場後表現的很不錯，但是紅牌使他將缺席下場比賽。其他的中場球員也只有希策爾斯佩格和特羅肖夫斯基可以出任左邊前衛，特羅肖夫斯基的實力還明顯不夠，希策爾斯佩格或許將回到主力陣容。
預測：勒夫在下場比賽中很有可能會繼續安排波多爾斯基出任左邊前衛。

弗裡茨

弗裡茨在中場很難找回對陣波蘭時的狀態，因此他還是應該回到後防線上。德國隊在中場需要一個拼搶積極、不怕髒活累活的人，這時候博羅夫斯基應該是一個不錯的選擇。

預測：這個位置上人員的選擇對於主教練而言將是最大的問題，施威因斯泰格停賽、奧東科作用不大、弗裡茨還是屬於後防線，這個位置上的人選還是一個謎。

戈麥斯

年輕的戈麥斯明顯還缺少大賽的經驗，在第二場比賽中鮮有威脅，波多爾斯基才是德國隊中最有威脅的前鋒，當然如果勒夫堅持將波多爾斯基放在中場的話，戈麥斯將和庫蘭伊爭奪一個主力位置。

勒夫（噗連他也被點名）

戰術大師勒夫在與克羅地亞的比賽中犯下了很多錯誤，對陣攻擊出色的球隊將楊森和波多爾斯基兩個防守較弱的球員同時放在左路是一個太大的風險。而下半場換上的奧東科在克羅地亞嚴密的防守面前毫無作為，第二次戰術上的失誤。而在比賽的最後時刻，勒夫還讓奧東科出任右後衛，他根本在防守上就什麼也不會，戰術上的失誤再次顯現。
