Low sees 'room for improvement' for Germany

Cape Town, June 14(ANI): Germany coach Joachim Low has said despite a 4-0 victory over Australia in their World Cup opener his team has scope to get even better.

Germany got a perfect start to their campaign after goals from Lukas Podolski, Miroslav Klose, Thomas Muller and Cacau.

"There is still room for improvement. Our defence was excellent, they performed very well," The Mirror quoted Low, as saying.

"I was very happy with our counter-attacks, but in terms of closing the space between defence and midfield, I felt sometimes we were too defensive. We will work on this," he added.

Low further praised his young side, who dominated the match from start to finish.

"It's always great to see that my team can implement my tactics on the pitch. From beginning to end, Australia was rather defensive and we had to change our attacks," Low said. (ANI)
