Germany have lined out specifically to counteract Italy, no interest in going to try and impose their own style of play.
Italy really missing De Rossi and Motta - Parolo and Sturaro just don’t have the passing range.
I’m really enjoying this game, chess stuff bot brilliant
Ozil disappeared Again so far tonight.
That first half has taken a year off my life.
Stay strong, pal.
We’re rooting for you pal
Pelle not doing it tonight, he can’t bully the two big German centre halves - think Immobile might be good to bring in.
You, your family & country are in my thoughts. #forza
Better start to this half.
this is a real game for the purists
Was that Barzagli?
What a saving block.
Some goal line clearance that
Italians look very leggy here
this is an utter classic, totally absorbing
This is a shit game from what I’ve seen,
Well deserved lead for germany
Marty Feldman gives Germany the lead.
