Khedira did a good job today of filling in for Ballack as Germany, without its Bayern Munich regulars (Schweinsteiger, Lahm, Muller and Butt), easily defeated Hungary 3-0.

This was Germany's lineup:

Germany: Manuel Neuer, Jeroma Boateng, Arne Friedrich (Holger Badstuber, 71), Per Mertesacker, Heiko Westermann, Sami Uhedira (Dennis Aogo, 46), Toni Kroos (Mario Gomez, 62), Mesut Oezil (Cacau, 46), Piotr Trochowski (Marcell Jansen, 62), Miroslav Klose (Marko Marin, 62), Lukas Podolski

Marin and Cacau also looked good coming in off the bench.

Klose and Podolski did not have good club seasons but they still play well with Germany. An impressive win for Germany with Khedira doing well where Ballack played and it was achieved as libero noted without Schweinsteiger and Lahm, two of the Mannschaft's best players.

If Khedira plays well, Germany can still be a very good team even without Ballack.

Another German is injured and will miss the tournament, Heiko Westermann is out. That now makes 5 players out: Adler, Trasch, Ballack, Rolfes and now Westermann!
