Germany international goalkeeper Jens Lehmann has criticised the Euro 2008 ball after the former Arsenal keeper was responsible for conceding two suspect goals against Belarus in a friendly 2-2 draw last night.
He told Kicker magazine: "The ball is very difficult for me. I only trained with it for the first time a week ago. It is once again different to the ones before it.
"I had a situation in the first half (against Belarus) where I wanted to hold on to the ball - and then it started to move around.
"I hope in the coming days, when also my freshness will come back, that I then have a bit of time for a lot of shot training in order to get more familiar with the ball."
