Quote from the German team coach :
“I hope that streak continues, but it will be a tough game,” said Germany coach Silvia Neid.
“But the game against England will be a totally different game. England is good in defence and plays well man to man.”

So, football colloquial speak
Overrides the physical reality

But football is football
As per another cliché
So I’ll be cheering for England
When we pitch against the Germans today
