KAISERSLAUTERN, Germany -- Lars Bender salvaged a 3-3 draw for Germany against Paraguay in their friendly game on Wednesday, a result that left coach Joachim
Loew pondering serious defensive frailties in his side.

mistakes, especially in the beginning. We lacked concentration," Loew said.
"Overall in the first half, the whole defence was very erratic. The opponent had
too much space. But you could see some players were missing match practice. The
freshness wasnt there." Jose Ariel Nunez opened the scoring with Paraguays first
shot in the ninth minute, and more sloppy defending allowed Wilson Pittoni to
make it 2-0 four minutes later. Ilkay Gundogan pulled one back in the 18th, and
Mats Hummels sprung the offside trap for Thomas Mueller to equalize in the 31st.
But Samudio restored Paraguays lead before halftime, when former Bayern Munich
striker Roque Santa Cruz found him unmarked at the far post. Bender saved the
home sides blushes in the 75th, when he beat Oscar Romero to the ball, took it
on his chest and volleyed into the far corner. "Im not worried," said Germany
captain Philipp Lahm. "Next time well have time to work together, and well be
better. Its normal when you have players coming together from different teams,
all with different philosophies." It was a frustrating evening too for Miroslav
Klose, back at the stadium where he started his professional career, as he
failed to score the goal needed to equal Gerd Muellers record of 68 for Germany
despite several good chances. But Paraguay captain Cruz was happy. "We have a
very young team. Not many of our players have experience abroad, so its a very
nice result," Cruz said. The visitors were well-organized throughout -- contrary
to the German defence -- managing to stifle space in midfield and quickly
launching long passes to counterattack. Pittonis simple ball over the defence
allowed Nunez in to rifle his shot past Manuel Neuer. "We put no pressure on the
player in midfield to stop the long ball," Loew said. Sami Khedira botched his
clearance after Neuer punched away Samudios cross, and Pittoni volleyed the ball
20 metres into the left corner. It was Paraguays second shot. "Normally he has
to clear the ball," Loew said. Gundogan scored with a curling shot inside the
left post, when Justo Villar got his hands to the ball but was unable to keep it
out, and Germany deserved to equalize when Mueller stayed cool to pick his spot.
Samudios goal left the home fans whistling as the teams left for the break.
Germany improved for the second half, though missed several chances before
Bender finally equalized. "Of course the performances will improve once the
players get into their seasons with their clubs," Loew said. "We will -- like we
always do -- improve through September and October." Germany has World Cup
qualifiers against Austria and the Faeroe Islands in September, and then against
Ireland and Sweden in October. "We cant play like that against Austria. Its a
warning shot," said Neuer. "We need to analyze it and learn from it." Sami

themselves a new offensive coordinator, and one thats quite familiar with the
NFC South.

Emmanuel Kone pulled one back in the 80th and Levadiakos missed several chances
to level in the last 10 minutes.3. The Rainbow FlickNext up is the Rainbow
Flick, or as you probably know it, the trick that everybody at soccer camp
thought they knew how to do. In theory its not quite as technical as some of the
other tricks on this list, but pull it off in a game like Neymar does in the
video above and you see just how difficult of a maneuver it really is.4. The
Sombrero FlickIts only fitting that Neymar carry the torch on a trick made
popular by Brazilian legend Ronaldinho. Watch as Neymar flicks the hat off this
defender not once, but twice.
