ROME, July 3: Argentina soccer great Diego Maradona doesn't think much of the host team at the World Cup, saying the Germans don't have much going for them apart from brawn.

“Germany doesn't know how to play but it's physically strong,” Maradona said in an interview on the state-run RAI radio. “They always run, they always get (on the ball).”

But “Germany has shown nothing until now. Even with Argentina, it was down 1-0 and kept staying on the defence.”—AP
