Euro: Quarterfinals: Germany - Spain (July 5th)

[ItsFineImFine]

Rodri breaking up the play in midfield twice, Germany doesn't have that.

 

[Jussi]

Yamal sounds swedish nowadays so i’m also claiming.

Plagiarizing jokes negates the claim.

 

[PanniniClaus]

More positive changes... should be a fine last 30

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Really excited for two years of @cgf revisionism about the balance of play in this game

 

[SeawaterOnIce]

Been saying Germany have looked susceptible in midfield and their backline. The 5-1 game against Scotland wasn't even convincing.

On the other hand, Spain continue to improve as the tournament progresses on.

Anthony Taylor was the ref during that Cucurella-Romero hair pull incident, just saying.

 

[Power Man]

interesting sub by DLF

 

[Brunkmeister]

Didn’t know Ferran Torres still existed.

 

[gary69]

Germany only started to play like they can after falling behind. Still too many poor passes.

Really have liked Laporte in this tournament, has performed great dispite playing in an inferior league at club level.

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

weird sub, given that it feels like spain probably need a second goal

 

[Power Man]

Anthony Taylor was the ref during that Cucurella-Romero hair pull incident, just saying.

he had hair loss vietnam flashbsck that day

 

[luiginb]

De la Fuente you absolute f***ing moron

 

[gary69]

You guys sound like grampa Simpson when you talk about Andrich's hair

I think it's punk rock af

Hasn't he had a different colour at almost every match? Shades of Taribo West there.

 

[Live in the Now]

Kroos must have ten fouls by now.

 

[Power Man]

Better late than never

 

[BB88]

Love Kroos but he should be out by now

But may have saved the game

 

[ItsFineImFine]

Croatia did create a bunch of goal scoring chances in that first game against Spain they just couldn't convert.....Germany needs to calm down and control the midfield a bit the chances will come if they do.

 

[luiginb]

Finally a yellow for Kroos...

 

[gary69]

Andrich you were put in to prevent that lol cover the central AMF at least.

He was already a lot lower than from where Olmo shot. Olmo started his run from very deep in his own half, it wasn't possible for Andrich to track him as he was already down low, somebody else should have followed him from further up, maybe Gundogan? It wasn't Kroos fault either, he was in the correct area, albeit a bit wide.

 

[Avs44]

Havertz needed to finish that

 

[gary69]

Germany with a good spell, but they can't find a way to finish.

 

[Live in the Now]

Of course that's a foul. They won't stop fouling though.

 

[robertmac43]

Kai's got to do better there. Ball outside of the box and he just loses it so easily.

 

[SimpleJack]

Germany can fight and try as hard as they want. They will not score a goal in this match. They don’t have enough finishing quality. 1 is on all Spain were ever going to need.

 

[ItsFineImFine]

Kicking the ball away is not a yellow in UEFA competitions is it? Thought that's just an EPL rule.
