I watched the first half at an open air bar in Germany (I've now retired to my hotel room to watch the second half); great fun watching it with the German fans. I feel like Germany have been the better side but are actually very lucky not to be behind. Neuer has made two great saves, and who was it cleared off the line - amazing! The disallowed goal was a clear offside, but had that ball bounced just slightly differently and they'd have had a goal there too.

Excellent cross and an outstanding finish on the half volley.

That goal was beautiful. From the on a sixpence cross to the lovely half volley finish, everything about it was awesome.
Ermmm why not??
Germany dominated from start to finish, definitely deserved that if you ask me. Ukraine didn't do sweet FA all game so didn't deserve anything.
Özil aka assist master, what an assist from him to Schweinsteiger tho.

Annoyingly I cashed out 10 seconds before the 2nd goal. Didn't want a repeat of last night. Doh.
Tosh. They cruised that.
They were the better dude but Ukraine played well and it was only great keeping from Neuer, and a goal line clearance from Boateng that stopped them scoring. To my mind 2-1 would have better reflected the run of play.
