After taking two big hits this week -- losing at home and dropping back-to-back games for the first time all season -- Indiana struck back by playing its most complete game of the year.Former Germany midfielder Mehmet Scholl has criticised Mario Gotze, accusing the forward of being lazy. Bayern Munich forward Gotze, who scored the winning goal in World Cup final as Germany beat Argentina in Rio two years ago, has struggled to hold down a first-team place under Pep Guardiola.The 23-year-old has been linked with a move away from the Allianz Arena, with former Dortmund boss Jurgen Klopp apparently interested in taking the player to Liverpool. Gotze has missed a large chunk of the season through injury, but he scored in Germanys 4-1 friendly win over Italy on Tuesday night.Prior to the match former Bayern Munich player Scholl, who won Euro 96 with Germany, said: Why cant he produce consistent performances? For me the answer is obvious - he has to train much, much more.

Or did he just say that? said Gotze.If he sees it that way, I will take it to heart. I believe that I train enough. Also See: Euro 2016 Fixtures Latest video Tables Get Sky Sports ' ' '
