According to CCTV5 program list, the European Cup knockout match is about to start. As one of the traditional strong teams, the German team has attracted much attention. The German team's performance in the group match can be described as ups and downs. First, it lost miserably to the French team, then defeated the Portuguese team, finally, it drew with the Hungarian team, and advanced to the last 16 as the second in the group. What is the relationship between the German team's performance ranking and the team's performance? Let's analyze it.
The three matches of the German team in the group match are all against the hot teams winning the European Cup, which is very difficult. There is no doubt about the offensive ability of the German team. They scored six goals in three games, ranking third only after the Netherlands and Italy. On the German team's shooter list, six players, including Royce, Schweinsteiger, Hafferts, Gosens, Gretzka and Lewandowski, scored goals, showing the offensive firepower of the German team. The following is Germany's goal data:

The defense ability of the German team is relatively weak. They lost five goals in three games, two of which were own goals, which also reflects the mistakes and tension of the German team's defense. The defense data of the German team is as follows:

There is a certain gap between the German team's performance ranking and the team's performance. The offensive ability of the German team can be comparable to any team in the European Cup, but their defensive ability needs to be strengthened, especially in the face of strong opponents, there should be no mistakes and laxity. German coach Joachim Loew also said that the German team needs to improve its defensive quality in the knockout phase in order to go further. Germany's next opponent is England, which will be a tough battle and a test. It remains to be seen whether Germany can continue to play its part in the European Cup.
