    France defense is so poor. So many missed chances for Germany...too bad for that handball call.

    Still baffled how abysmal Müller has been playing in this tournament, looked like someone who's never played football before.

    Love Griezmann. Atletico Madrid automatically makes strikers in-form. I bet if he goes to another team he will all of a sudden lose his form both for country and club.

    This was a game of missed opportunities for Germany, but France deserved to win. They held their own in this one. Germany will be kicking themselves.

    I don't understand Müller's poor performance in the Euros. It's inexplicable.

    **** this ****. Match had the worst possible outcome with one possible penalty on Kroos early in the first half not given, then the stupid mistake by Schweinsteiger, bad luck with the chances especially by Kimmich and Höwedes and finally our most important player to leave injured. Second goal never happenend with Boa on the field.

    Guess without Khedira, Gomez, Hummels and Boateng alongside Reus and Gündogan was just too much to handle. Still proud of our guys, played a good round. With this young core we should be able to defend the World Cup in two years.

    Don't forget that France's best defenders are out and how young their core is, should be favourites for the World Cup.

    We baaadly need a new generation of strikers.

    If all of these teams stay in a hotel for what must be well over a month, that has got to be a big advantage for France as they sleep in their beds and have a practice routine.

    Müller did not score one goal I think.

    This never happens in real life.

    But good for France!!! Allez les Bleus!

    Huh, not sure if serious. Almost all of their players don't live in France and the team is staying together in one accomodation for this tournament.

    Germany dominated the game in the middle 2/3 of the field, but missed way too many chances. France was able to finish when it counted (and took advantage of a boneheaded mistake by Schweinsteiger). Griezmann just has a nose for the goal. Sunday should be really entertaining. Can't wait to see Ronaldo is all his preening glory take on the hosts.
