The first national game after the World Cup. Rudi named the players for this game:

Goal: Kahn and Lehmann

Defence: Arne Friedrich (Hertha), Ingo Hertzsch (Hamburg), Kehl, Metzelder, Ramelow

Midfield: Ballack, Bierofka, Böhme, Freier (Bochum), Frings, Hamann, Jeremies, Schneider

Offence: Asamoah, Jancker, Klose, Neuville, Zickler


The only player without a cap so far is Arne Friedrich. Hertzsch and Freier have one, Bierofka two caps.

HAHA Paul Freier... that guy looks very comical
It's great to see Voeller bringing in youngsters
im particularly excited to see Bierofka play
What about Christian Rahn? I thought he played well last time

[olafgb]

Rahn is injured, some weeks break for him.

[olafgb]

Butt replaces Kahn

[olafgb]

Böhme stays at home with injury, Neuville is still questionable.

[olafgb]

Oliver Neuville stays in Leverkusen and also Torsten Frings stayed at home. Hamann, Metzelder, Lehmann and Asamoah are slightly injured and it's insecure whether they can play. Völler added two Werder players to the roster: midfielders Fabian Ernst (1 cap)and Tim Borowski (no cap)

still no max??...... jeez.

[olafgb]

Max is no real alternative in his age.

Hamann is the next one out.

[Basti]

well here's my prediction eventhough the squad is full of inexperience

BULGARIA 1-3 DEUTSCHLAND
