Philipp Lahm urges his side to push for a win over Austria – Euro 2012 Qualifier News 
German international, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Philipp-Lahm-c29929, has urged his side to push for a win over Austria in their Euro 2012 qualifier. The defender believed that it would be a difficult game for the Germans and also urged the fans to make a trip to Vienna in order to provide
support. Both group A teams will lock heads on Friday, June 3.
Lahm was of the view that http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Austria-c2844 games have always been a nail biter and reckoned that this one would not be any different. He also urged his teammates to push hard in this game as a win would bring them ever closer for a spot in the finals. Joachim
Low’s side are leading the group A with 15 points while http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Belgium-c2850 are occupying the runners-up spot. Austria are rooted at the bottom of the group with just seven points.
Austrian http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Marc-Janko-c23484, reckons that the Das Team can lend out a final punch on the German faces on Friday in spite of their poor form. He signalled a kind of warning for Low’s outfit ahead of the game saying that his team are really pumped up for
the game and have trained extremely hard to ensure that the Germans do not get anything on a platter.
Lahm, on the other hand, mentioned, ''Games against Austria are always explosive as there is a special rivalry. There are many Austrians who play with us in the [German] Bundesliga and have great quality. We look forward to this important game. With a win,
we can take a big step [towards qualifying for the Euro 2012 finals]."
The 27-year-old has 77 appearances under his belt for the German national side since he made his debut in 2004. This season, the right back appeared 34 times for Bayern Munich, bagging three goals during the process.
Austrian captain, meanwhile, concluded by saying, “We have prepared very intensively for this difficult match. We are the rank outsiders and have nothing to lose but we want to irritate Germany and maybe that will be good enough for a draw or a success.''
He finally claimed that his team will go all out against their opposition and an upset might be on the cards on Friday.
