Adler named Germany's top goalie

Soccer Betting Lines

03/02/2010 - Munich, Germany (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Germany will start Rene Adler in goal in a friendly against Argentina on Wednesday, leaving no doubt the Bayer Leverkusen goalie is the favorite to start in the World Cup.

Germany coach Joachim Loew previously said the starter against Argentina would also start in this summer's World Cup. Goalkeeping coach Andreas Kopke said on Tuesday choosing Adler "was not a difficult decision."

"In the race for the number one spot, Rene Adler currently has the edge," said Kopke. "He had excellent performances in every game we put him in the goal."

Adler, 25, has led Bayer Leverkusen to an unbeaten start through 24 matches in the Bundesliga. Schalke's Manuel Neuer and Werder Bremen's Tim Wiese are also likely to be the World Cup roster.

"I feel good about this nomination, especially considering the magnitude of the game," Adler said. "It's great to play against some of the best players in the world."

Adler could still lose the No. 1 role before the World Cup starts in June, but if he continues to play well, he will start in South Africa.
