The German National team will face Ecuador Wednesday in an international friendly that will showcase two teams playing at a high level.
German National Soccer team coach Joachim Low revealed that he is optimistic that his younger players will prove critics wrong when they face Ecuador in Florida. He is also eager to see how his players respond to an Ecuadorian team that has many veteran players that play league football throughout Europe.
"We are very prepared for this match, although Ecuador are one of the most disciplined teams I have ever encountered in my career," Low told reporters during a press conference at the St. Regis in Bal Harbour.

"We feel very good here in Miami. Aside from the difficult time change, we have enjoyed our stay so far. We love Miami," Low added.
The Germans are currently ranked second in the world behind Brazil and have dominated their group during World Cup qualifying thus far. Given the recent all-German Champions League final on Saturday Low called up many players from the B-team to showcase the future of German football.
Still Arsenal's Lukas Podolski and Per Mertesacker have made the trip as well as Hamburg's Rene Adler and Schalke's Benedikt Howedes.
"The big guys always bring positivity and guidance to the team," Low said. "I'm very pleased with all of my players right now."
But for Ecuador's manager, Reinaldo Rueda, this game is a chance to see how the South American side holds up against a European giant. Given the fact that Ecuador has failed to score only once in their last 19 matches, look for the German backline to be under constant pressure.
La Tri's will lean heavily on Lokomotiv Moscow striker Felipe Caicedo, who has scored an impressive eight goals in his last seven games for the national side, as well as Christian Benitez, who recently won the Mexican league cup with Club America.
Kick-off for the match is at 2:30 ET and can be watched online here.
