As expected, Germany stepped up a gear against Netherlands after slogging to a win over Portugal in their opening group game and, as many predicted, they top Group B. But even six points from two games doesn’t guarantee progress to the quarter-finals for Joachim Low’s team, and they wrap up group proceedings against a Denmark side that has already sprung a surprise with a 1-0 win against the Dutch (although were indebted to a medley of misses).If the Germans play as they did for most of their game against Bert van Marwijk’s under-achievers, they should have few worries about securing the point they need. After the plod against Portugal, the win over Netherlands indicated that the fluent attacking football that has become a German hallmark was on its way back. Mezut Ozil, Bastian Schweinsteiger and Thomas Muller prompted and pressed as the Dutch – admittedly sometimes underwhelming in the challenge – floundered.And at the cutting edge of all that was the country’s unexpected man of the moment. There were media grumblings when Low selected Mario Gomez for the Portugal game – grumblings that were silenced by a majestic headed winner and buried altogether by two more fine finishes against Netherlands. It has been a golden week for a striker who has sometimes struggled to bring his club confidence to the international stage.
Denmark player to watch: Nicklas Bendtner
The two-goal star of what ultimately turned out to be a
disappointing show last time out, the striker who has so often bigged
himself up has the opportunity to make a decisive impact when it really
matters. It’s unclear what his underwear plans are.
Germany player to watch: Mario Gomez
Well, who else? His star has been in the ascendancy ever since,
with substitution imminent, he won the game against Portugal. His first
goal against Netherlands was taken with a level of aplomb that told of
the confidence injection that brought.
Key battle: Daniel Agger v Mario Gomez. Nobody
needs reminding of what a good centre-back Agger is, and how he deals
with the tournament’s joint top scorer will have a significant bearing
on Denmark’s chances of keeping Germany at bay.
Stat: Denmark haven’t lost in their last three games against the Germans, all of which were friendlies.
Trivia: The last three times Germany won their first two matches at a European Championship, they went on to win the trophy.
Odds: Denmark (6.00), Germany (1.72) and the draw
(3.40) are on offer with bet365, while man of the moment Gomez is 5.50
to be first goalscorer.
Prediction: Germany were much more assured in
their second match than their first, and rarely looked flustered even
after Netherlands had pulled a goal back. With their passing clicking
into gear, they should get more than the point they need here.
