Lukas Podolski: “We want to throw out a head defeat of Switzerland”

Arsenal striker and German Lukas Podolski commented on the result of a friendly match with Switzerland (3: 5). 

“Of course, this is a painful defeat. Something similar was in 2006, when we lost to Italy with a score of 4: 1. This should not have happened. But I can promise that we see us as another team in the game with Portugal. Now we are joined by players of Bavaria. We are very lacking, because of their role in the team very much.

We need to cope with criticism, to release the head of unnecessary thoughts and concentrate on your game with Portugal. The main task is a good performance at the Euro”, - quoted the player official website of the German Football Federation.
