[pSinatra]

The Germans deserved that

 

They've been shit

[simFox]

Awesome.. getin!

[MC Prussian]

Shocking pass by Kroos.

[foxes_rule1978]

Sublime finish that 

[MC Prussian]

That's what you get for nominating Özil and Gündogan, Jogi.

[NewEnglandFox]

Wow!!!!!

[kingfox]

He couldn't do that for Sunderland  

[foxes_rule1978]

Must win for Germany this game, unreal how they have come out, struggling massively. Seem to forgotten how to pass 

[Finnegan]

As happy as that goal will make you all, its going to make this game ****ing dreadful as a spectacle of football. 

[Mrfox452]

Slight deflection?

 

If not goal of the tournament so far me.

 

Lovely goal. 

[The Doctor]

Looking at a third successive world cup (and a 4th in 6) where the holders go out in the group

Lovely goal. 

It looked like a deflection during play but no deflection in the replay

It is surreal 

[StanSP]

regarding the incident earlier, everyone knows I'm a huge fan of VAR but even I'll admit they were wrong not to at least let the on-field ref review it. 

For me that was clear and obvious.

A German exit would never be a dreadful spectacle for us. 

Long way to go still though.

I find it hard to see how Germany can win this, they aren’t right, they have off field problems

4th in 5 I think?

 

France 02, (Brazil 06), Italy 10, Spain 14, Germany 18?

Yeah, counted 06 twice for some reason

[peterborofox]

Great goal and helps England's route through to the final....lol

 

 

 

Just hope Sweden don't defend all second half as I need them to win a corner..

heard the commentator say they're not happy about their purpose-built base in Moscow and there's a lot of friction between some players.

Oh ah, I do understand it. 

 

If you lot went out to a spawny shithouse defeat by, say for arguments sakes, a tiny island nation in the North Sea, for example, I'd love it. 

 

But having the defensive side score first never makes for a good game. It's like any time Mourinho's team score first you might as well turn the TV off. 

[Suzie the Fox]

Sadly as crappy as Germany are tonight. I can still see them coming back to win 2-1 ;(
