Lukas Podolski for Vogue Italy. Part 2

The new Germany has a thirst for a return match. It wants the World Cup and is preparing to play its aces at the South African tournament.

As happens everywhere, sport is a mirror of society and the country, even in football, has gone well beyond unification. Now it is a multicultural melting pot, and, in particular, the national team’s striker has given new sheen to the team. In Mario Gomez’ veins, Spanish blood also runs; Lukas Podolski and Miroslaw Klose were born in Poland, and the champion of a thousand battles, Michael Ballack, was born and raised in East Germany.

Just before the final squad is picked, however, the potential winning poker has been reduced to a threesome, because Michael is injured and will be out of the running for at least two months. Knowing the German temperament, however, the team as whole will not be greatly affected.
