The German national team manager admitted that it will be a totally different game altogether from the one against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Portugal-c2984.
Die Mannschaft will take on the Dutch on Wednesday, June 13, at the Metalist Stadium in Kharkiv. The DFB eleven will be looking to make it two wins out of two after winning their opener against Portugal courtesy a Mario Gomez header
in the second-half.
Low admitted that he side needs to improve after a rather disappointing performance against the Seleccao. The manager insisted that his team was wasteful throughout the course of the game but hailed the defensive display.
The coach stressed that http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Netherlands-c753 will be a different team to Portugal and claimed that the Dutch are not a team which sit back. He stressed on the importance of a sound display from the back four as the opposition has immense
quality in attack.
The former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Germany-c2904 need a win to qualify for the knock-out stage.
“We have room to improve but it was important to get the three points. In defence, it's about fine-tuning. It's all-or-nothing for them [Netherlands]. They must win to stay in the tournament. We have completed our first small stage,”
he was quoted as saying in an interview.
The tactician expressed his pleasure on the win against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Paulo-c29431 Bento’s men but is wary of the threat Holland possess in attack. He admitted that it will not be a walk in the park for his side when the two teams clash on Wednesday.
“I was pleased with the first game. But it's going to be a different game against Netherlands, both teams will act differently. Portugal focused a lot on defence, Netherlands will be more offensive-minded,” he concluded.
Germany and Denmark have both won their respective opening games in Group B and a win for either side in their second game will ensure a place in the next round. It is a must win game for Netherlands and Portugal.
