Jens Talks Balls
Jens has predicted difficulties for goalies at the World Cup due to the choice of ball that is to be used...
"It's a ball for the outfield players and the crowd -- not for the goalkeepers," said Jens.
"When it rains it's not going to be very comfortable for us. It gets very slippery. It also moves a lot in the air."
The World Cup ball is known as the Teamgeist and is made by Adidas. Lehmann compared it to the ball from rival manufacturer Nike.
"The Nike ball feels more like an old fashioned leather ball," he said. "The Adidas one is more plastic.
"When it comes down to it, both of them make the goalkeepers look bad."
