defense Joshua kimich plays with Tony cros in the center the park and they just go with the one Striker up front free kick only from the referee nothing more Sinister than that [Applause] rushing it

be a corner corner play there really good defending if he hadn't touched it it was a goal now one of the keepers thanking him for that but the closing down the shots on good block off the P to get the equalizer brilliant defending it saved a certain goal he was almost Wheeling away to celebrate there could easily have been Even Stevens but if they keep on playing there they are it won't be far away that equalizer and that's broken up by the defender before the cross could come in he given it straight to the opposition trying to switch on the attacking power in this situation he's in here Manuel Neuer another great save oh it's the Poise the authority of the big German that'll be a corner Corner swung in and here's the shot got his laces behind that one took his eye off the ball but not a bad

another four minutes of in time Kos it's kimich they could pose some danger now he has cleared it well Julian Draxler a timely challenge well here we are at halim and there's just the one goal in it on the score line so it's been a good contest it has been and uh not much to separate the two teams really uh the one side took the chance it's been a half a few chances in all fairness so here's the kick it's Germany who are winning at the halfway stage but uh lots of action to come and lots of time for it here's the young Luke and it's out of play wealden georgino the shots on that's a good

strong and looking to play their way through now defended well good challenge well you can't not these fans they're doing everything possible to get behind their team [Applause] here geino Ronaldo well that's a wild tackle more out of desperation I think good defensive clearance there to level it up now and it's out for a corner having played the advantage he's now going back to deal with the infringement that he could have blown for and the offender's going to get a yellow card yeah I wonder whether he thought he got away with that because the play was allowed to go on but no he sees yellow Alan it's Tony Cross who's going off what do you think's behind that decision well he's done his bit he got the goal that put his team in the lead can they hold that lead here comes the corner here's the shot and they get it away now he can cross it geino Waldo cleared Away by the defender he's cut that out well well read very good consistent German Performance here Germany in control of the match and shaping up for victory the supporters Allen trying to play their part here and lift the home team yeah I think they believe Martin the question is do those players down on the pitch guiding it through here's a chance to whip it in it's kimich 85 minutes played five to go Roy it'll be a throw and here we're going to have a substitution it seems as though it's for tactical reasons now van djk here's depay van djk trying to thread a pass through but not successful well only two more minutes to be added on by the referee now just 1 minute left on the clock that's the end of it the visiting team have got their win here and they are now one win away from claiming all the bragging rights yeah they looked impressive out they really accomplished a proper team this and I'll
