Low happy despite dour draw

Germany coach Joachim Low was satisfied with the way his players bounced back from the horror show against Sweden to end 2012 on a positive note in Holland last night.

After conceding four times in 30 minutes to squander a 4-0 lead against the Swedes last month, defensive solidity was Low’s primary focus in Amsterdam and, while a dour goalless draw disappointed supporters, it was mission accomplished for the visitors.
