OT: Euro 2016

Germany has been better thus far. Just can't score

The play-acting, the cynicism and the brutality ...

Nice goal ....

OZIL!!

Neuer said enough of this slow **** ...

Oh **** ... penalty shot

Another game with extra time..

Very uncharacteristic dumb mistake by Boateng with his arms above his head going for that header.

Comes down to a mistake.

Holy ****

DIE MANNSCHAFT!!

Germany wins but that game was crap ... they both deserved to lose.

Thought I was watching a soccer game from back in the 70's and 80's.

Carlos Valderrama must have been having flashbacks to when he was young and Colombia was powerful.

Great match.

Conte is finally silenced.

This is what happens when two great defences face each other. Italy defended amazingly - but completely sold out on offense. Germany's three-man defence was the perfect counter to Italy's offensive style that relied on Pelle and Eder drawing out the defence during counterattacks. All of the previous four quarterfinalists wouldn't have done any better when playing those defences when they are determined to keep a clean sheet.

Boateng gets saved by his teammates

Cut him some slack, he's played an amazing tournament, arguably the best defender till now while dealing with lower leg problems the entire time. Had one brainfairt moment, but he made his penalty in the end despite all that pressure.

I didn't criticize his performance at all.

I think he redeemed himself with a clutch penalty kick.
