The match Germany vs. Lichtenstein - 6:0 (1:0). The scorers of the game: Podolski twice, Rolfes, Sweinsteiger, Hitzlsperger, Westermann.

"I have supported neither Spain nor Russia in the semifinal of Euro 2008, said Lukas. "It was all the same for me who was going to win."

"Both Spain and Russia are opponents of the highest level."

"I don't want to count how Russia is stronger than Lichtenstein, I can only say that according to the latest results the matches with Russia will be very difficult for us."

"On the other hand, you are bronze winners of Euro 2008 and we are silver winners. That should give us more confidence."

"My dream is to become world football champion and drive in a F1 race car together with Michael Schumacher whom I admire since childhood. But after he resigned from sport I picked up a new hero - Robert Kubica. We both have Polish background."

"I do my work with great pleasure though I recently I began to feel more confident."

"Piotr Trochowski provided me with a great number of accurate passes in the game, we performed well together."
