Germany v Portugal

Two high quality teams battled it out in this extremely nail biting match. Some of the very best players were out on the pitch today including Cristiano Ronaldo and Nani from Portugal and Mario Gomez and Schweinsteiger from Germany.

The first half was a very tough time to make out who would be the first goal scorer. The pressure was soon felt in the second half and both teams picked their game up a bit. Portugal were looking very strong with their unbreakable defence line but Germany finally managed to break through with a deflected header by Mario Gomez, ending in a goal in the 71st minute. It was then that C.Ronaldo started to have a few goes at the goal himself, which were very close to making the ball end up in the net.

Before you knew it Portugal had their last chance at scoring when a corner opportunity came along. Nani took it, Bruno Alves headed it and.... it went over the bar. The referee blew his whistle and it was over for Portugal; but it had just begun for Germany...
