...Like the Brazilians, Germany had a football heritage to live up to. But the team it fielded on Sunday bore scant resemblance to its imaginative sides of the past. "Der Kaiser" Franz Beckenbauer, who had participated in German World Cup victories as both player and manager, offered this unenthusiastic analysis of coach Rudi VOller's squad during the tournament: "We don't have any bad players, but at the same time there aren't any truly good ones either."
