		<description>MY guess is Germany will win 2 to 0. and i think the absence of Ballack at the center of the pitch will not make any significant difference on the ultimate result, but if constarica could exploit his absence, i think everything will take a different turn.</description>

		<description>Germany will lose their opening game to Costa Rica 0-1. Cost Rica will score the single goal of the match late in the 2nd Half.
Germany will then go on to emerge runners up from their group behind Poland.</description>

		<description>[...] The host nation is waiting on pins and needles to see how long it will take for captain Michael Ballack to recover from a nagging calf injury. The injury isn&#8217;t serious but it is bad enough to keep him out the first game against Costa Rica. With a German team that lacks experience, not having a world-class veteran player like Ballack on the field to settle those first game jitters may be a big issue. [...]</description>
