answer: #Person1# and #Person2# are talking about the World Cup. #Person2# thinks Germans are not in a very good condition but then agrees with #Person1# that they still have very high hopes since they have a good reputation for their tenacity and discipline.
documents: #Person1#: Which team do you think will emerge with the last laugh in this World Cup?
  #Person2#: I wish it could be Germany. But it seems they are not in a very good conditions.
  #Person1#: No, they aren't. They had a hard time in the group stage and only sealed a sit in the eighth-finals with Wallack's header in the final three minutes. Just think, group A consists of Austria, China, and Saudi Arabia, all of which are minnows.
  #Person2#: It seems they've been out of luck since the beginning of the event. Their shots hit the woodwork as many as six times. Oh. my goodness! I'm afraid the team is under a spell.
  #Person1#: Well, at least the Germans have demonstrated a very good ability to control the midfield. They recorded a total of 62 tackles in the match against Austria. And they to be endowed with perfect positional sense. I think that will give rise to scoring chances sooner or later.
  #Person2#: I agree. Eeven though German attackers are not good at dribbling past opposing defenders, they breach the defensive line through quick movements to the right attacking positions and through accurate, well-timed passes.
  #Person1#: That's why I still have very high hopes for the team. Now that the tournament has proceeded into the knock-out stage, the Germans will probably make it through to the finals.
  #Person2#: Yes. They have a good reputation for their tenacity and discipline, especially in vital, decisive encounters.
