賽事前瞻：美國(guó)VS德國(guó)
當(dāng)?shù)孛襟w的聲音
Despite Germany dropping points and looking fallible, Bild remained upbeat but offered coach Jogi Low a few pointers. "Jogi have to rebuild so we do not cut off prematurely, as was the Spain and England," it said via a very crude language translation. The main change? Moving Philip Lahm back from midfield to right-back. "After two games is certain: this does not work! There is no better rights defenders in the world than Lahm - so it must be as well to go back."
盡管德國(guó)隊(duì)已經(jīng)丟分，且看上去很容易犯錯(cuò)，德國(guó)《圖片報(bào)》還是看好德國(guó)取勝，但對(duì)主帥勒夫提出幾點(diǎn)建議?！秷D片報(bào)》稱，“勒夫必須改造陣容，以免像西班牙和英格蘭那樣提前出局?！敝饕兓?？將拉姆從中場(chǎng)撤回右后衛(wèi)?！皟蓤?chǎng)比賽過后，我們非?？隙ǎ豪反蚝笱翢o作用！拉姆是世界第一右后衛(wèi)，他最好還是回到他熟悉的位置。”
USA Today took the positives from USA's 2-2 draw with Portugal. "This was simply a team still maturing and developing. A team that has to learn how to finish out big games," it wrote. "Tackle that first. Then we can we start talking seriously about winning the World Cup." Seriously.
美國(guó)媒體《今日美國(guó)報(bào)》從美國(guó)2-2戰(zhàn)平葡萄牙的比賽中看到希望。“這是一只不斷成熟、不斷發(fā)展的隊(duì)伍。這支隊(duì)伍必須學(xué)會(huì)如何拿下硬仗，先解決德國(guó)，之后我們可以認(rèn)真考慮奪冠了?！闭f真的，確實(shí)如此。
Key battle: Michael Bradley vs Kroos/Schweinsteiger/Lahm
關(guān)鍵對(duì)位：布拉德利VS 克羅斯/施魏因斯泰格/拉姆
Having replaced Clint Dempsey as the USA's MVP, the non-stop 'son of Bob' Bradley was the key man against Portugal, dominating the passing stats and ball recoveries stat and regulating the Americans' tempo. If the USA are to remain composed enough to take the point they need, Bradley will have to be at his best – a tough assignment against Toni Kroos, Bastian Schweinsteiger, Philipp Lahm (if Bild allows), or whoever Germany choose to play in the more defensive midfield role.
布拉德利還在進(jìn)步，這位前美國(guó)主帥之子是對(duì)陣葡萄牙一戰(zhàn)的關(guān)鍵球員，他傳接球次數(shù)冠絕全隊(duì)，場(chǎng)控球隊(duì)節(jié)奏，并取代鄧普西成為美國(guó)隊(duì)的最佳球員。如果美國(guó)隊(duì)沉著應(yīng)戰(zhàn)，想拿到分?jǐn)?shù)的話，布拉德利的狀態(tài)必須達(dá)到最佳，來對(duì)抗德國(guó)隊(duì)的中場(chǎng)球員，包括托尼·克羅斯、施魏因斯泰格、拉姆（如果《圖片報(bào)》允許的話 ）或是任何有可能出任防守型中場(chǎng)的球員，這將是非常困難的任務(wù)。
