It's everybody's second team...isn't it?

Group B
Germany

Odds to win: 4/1
Previous best: Three times champions.
Gaffer's pedigree: Joachim Low is no Jurgen Klinsmann, he doesn’t live in California for a start. But he has great hair, which counts for a lot.
He might do alright: Mario Gomez. That's right, he's German. His dad's Spanish or something and clearly didn't fancy calling him Ulrich. Nonetheless the boy can play, and he's already scored six goals in nine games for his country.
How did he get in? Jens Lehman. Poor ‘keeper, crap hair, great moaner. How he’ll miss his old pal Oliver.
Stick your money on: Germany surprising everyone by playing the best football in the tournament. Depressing thought.
Wag Watch: Sarah Brander. That's Miss Bastian Schweinsteiger, the not-so-aesthetically-pleasing midfielder. A quick Google search will show that, like Hatton in Las Vegas, he's punching way above his weight.
If they were a celeb: Naomi Campbell: Unpopular, unpredictable, but attractive to look at.
Obligatory translation feature: “Vorsprung durch technik” (“Jens Lehman can’t catch a beach ball”)
Prediction: Winners. Depressingly…
