As a German fan, I am not impressed with the performance. I thought Schweinsteiger was awful and should have been subbed at half for Kroos. He was wild with his passes and had some poor defensive positioning. Boateng is a level below most of the players in the squad. I'd be curious as to what he does to be chosen as RB over Howedes or why right footed Lahm isn't moved for Schmelzer to play LB. I thought both Reus and Schurrle played well. Reus got the goal but disappeared at times and Schurrle was trigger happy.
I still think Germany will be able to out score both England and Italy, but the weakness against the counter attack will always keep opposing teams in the match. Spain is another story...Portugal is really warming up as well.
