当地媒体的声音

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."

尽管德国队已经丢分，且看上去很容易犯错，德国《图片报》还是看好德国取胜，但对主帅勒夫提出几点建议。《图片报》称，“勒夫必须改造阵容，以免像西班牙和英格兰那样提前出局。”主要变化？将拉姆从中场撤回右后卫。“两场比赛过后，我们非常肯定：拉姆打后腰毫无作用！拉姆是世界第一右后卫，他最好还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.

美国媒体《今日美国报》从美国2-2战平葡萄牙的比赛中看到希望。“这是一只不断成熟、不断发展的队伍。这支队伍必须学会如何拿下硬仗，先解决德国，之后我们可以认真考虑夺冠了。”说真的，确实如此。

Key battle: Michael Bradley vs Kroos/Schweinsteiger/Lahm

关键对位：布拉德利VS 克罗斯/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.

布拉德利还在进步，这位前美国主帅之子是对阵葡萄牙一战的关键球员，他传接球次数冠绝全队，场控球队节奏，并取代邓普西成为美国队的最佳球员。如果美国队沉着应战，想拿到分数的话，布拉德利的状态必须达到最佳，来对抗德国队的中场球员，包括托尼·克罗斯、施魏因斯泰格、拉姆（如果《图片报》允许的话 ）或是任何有可能出任防守型中场的球员，这将是非常困难的任务。
