Low: Germany defence exceptional

Joachim Low hailed Germany's 'exceptional' defence following their 1-0 victory over Spain in Vigo.

Toni Kroos struck home the winner for die Mannschaft with just a minute of normal time remaining, and the Coach was delighted with the plenitude of his side's performance tonight, particularly at the back where Mats Hummels and Jerome Boateng were absent.

“I think we tried to play with order and attacked calmly. Spain always combine their play well, so we had to put another man in midfield,” Low told reporters after the match.

“Furthermore we lacked Hummels and Boateng and Spain always have fast wingers who join up with the attack.

“I'm happy to say that our defence had an exceptional game.”
