Bayern Munich attacker Thomas Muller says Germany deserved their 1-0 World Cup win over the USA.
Muller took his overhaul tally of World Cup goals to nine in the same number of appearances with strike number four in Brazil.
"We were dominant," said Muller. "All the Americans did was sit back deep in their own half, and when that happens, it just becomes a patience game.
"But sometimes even I manage to have a bright idea - I spend the whole day training like I'm obsessed anyway."
That idea was a pinpoint low strike from the edge of the penalty area which decided Thursday's clash in Germany's favour.
"It was an okay game from us," added Muller to ZDF television. "We may only have won it 1-0, but we can take that too."
