It is obvious as daylight that Germany’s Lukas Podolksi and Philip Lahm operate with a right brained attitude which is at polar opposites to the rest of the team. Germany’s creative zest arises from the left flank. Four goals and a hand in three more. But the intuitive right brain is also prone to blunders. And so it is with Podolski and Lahm, especially Lahm whose defensive gaffes have proven embarassing. Opposing teams have been punished by them but they have also found that the door is left open.
