Default LOW NOT IMPRESSED BY LEHMANN

Joachim Low was underwhelmed by his side's 3-0 win over Austria and admitted to concerns over the performance of goalkeeper Jens Lehmann.

Low opted to start the Arsenal man - even though he has barely figured for the Gunners this season - but the move almost backfired as Lehmann produced an error-ridden display.

His first mistake was to charge 30 yards from goal only to lose out to Austria forward Martin Harnik. Roland Linz's resulting shot was cleared off the line by Per Mertesacker.

"The pitch was slippery in some areas, but in that part it was firm," Lehmann explained.

He also had an explanation as to why he missed several high balls, one of which was headed against the bar by Emanuel Pogatetz.

"The opponents were very tall," he said. "Austria were very dangerous from set-pieces."

Low was not impressed by Lehmann's display.

"He is normally one who plays well with the team," said Low, who now faces more questioning over who starts in goal in the build-up to Euro 2008.
