That was close...

It's amazing how quick a player get up after a foul when the opposition kick the ball out 

I was in the kitchen and forgot the start!

Poor effort even with a deflection

 Reprimands EC 

Good save the German keeper...

The Germans are not being closed down quickly enough by the Ukrainian defence...

Great save the Ukrainian keeper 

Decent save

Dear me, what was tha Ukrainian defender doing? 

I do hate seeing footballers spit.

Not a good habit but a necessity sometimes...

It's looking like it's heading for a German win 

It will be interesting if this ends 1-0.

Some of the Ukrainian defending is to say the least "amateurish"

I'll be honest. I never felt the urge as a player.

Another sub.

I was thinking, has it been one goal in it for every match so far?

I was too scared of the cricket ball to play cricket. 

The Ukrainian keeper is certainly keeping them in the game

 It does knack a little when it hits you in "some places"  

The slow "I'll waste some time sub" walk

...again I hate that. Tell them they have 10 seconds to get off or I will book you.

Yep 

Or like American gridiron, stop the clock everything the ball isn't in play. They would soon get annoyed if they had to play a 1 hour half 

 Close to number two then...

I always fancy the Germans to sneak a late one.

The Germans are playing "keep ball" now. Sound tactics but pretty boring 

Schweinsteiger.

Saved by the keeper again...nearly an own goal too 

Great to watch the face of the German No.2 in the replay as he headed that ball back. 

On that replay, the keeper played the man.......

Yes, rather blatantly in my opinion. I think it's a foul.

Oh well that's that
