| Gdansk, Lviv, Poznan ..... |
On Saturday German television told its viewers that the German team won in 'Lemberg'.
The team is staying in 'Danzig' in an old 'East Prussian' villa.
And on the Wednesday evening before the game in 'Lemberg' German Chancellor Angela Merkel arrived in her sleek limousine flanked by German secret service (Bundesnachrichten Dienst - BND) to meet and greet the team.
And then to cap it all, a team assistant trainer used the term (Stahlhelm) 'steel helmet' when talking about tactics for Saturday's game in 'Lemberg'. But the media did think that was a step too far and manager Joachim Löw apologised.
Imagine if there were some major European tournament in Ireland and the British media referred to Kingstown, Queenstown and Maryborough, what at all would we think?
