"Bild has learned that the injured captain will definitely be in the starting lineup," the newspaper wrote on www.bild.de under a headline "Jaaaa! Michael Ballack spielt!" (Yeess! Michael Ballack will play!)
"In a team meeting after an afternoon training session Ballack's name was written on the lineup board."
