World Cup Last 16 - England v Germany


Deutschslapped!

A youthful energetic and exciting German team whipped England 4-1 to reach the World Cup quarter final. Klose and Podolski put them on their way with two goals in the first 30 minutes. And when Upson equalised it looked like England could make it a contest.

Then came the controversial turning point on 38 minutes. A Frank Lampard shot clearly crossed the line, but amazingly the officials miss it, and no goal is given.

England were poor, and Germany crucified them on the break twice in the second half with two goals from Mueller, after swift sweet passing movements the length of the pitch.

In the end, England were praying for the final whistle to put them out of their misery.
