Germany have only conceded 2 goals. Both from pens due to handballs.

The manager should really warn them.....but saying that, Löw is probably not the best person when it comes to keeping your hands from places they shouldn't be.

No way was that deliberate.

He knew he wasn't going to make the header so tried to give him a shove ... ?

If you have your hands up there, and it stops the ball heading goalwards, you force the ref into a decision which might go against you. Tough, but they get given.

OTOH - I've got a double on Griezmann to score first and France to win 1-0 or 2-0 at 18/1, so not overly bovvered.

Hands on the balls is very German these days 😀

Need to find that Low clip again !

@bongo - no hand ball in the area lads sounds like a Woy team talk

I find it difficult to be even remotely bothered about either France or Germany being on the receiving end of dodgy refs decisions

Does Giroud think he's Raheem Sterling?

Lovely commentary from Martin Keown there - definite foul.

In his day he'd have picked up a bonus for going through someone from the back like that

This has all the hallmarks of a 1-0.

Muller is anonymous, so not too sure who is going to score the German goals.

Yeah, Germany look pretty clueless at the moment.

...and now they lose one of their best defenders.

Looking like one of those nights.

How Muller hasn't got hooked yet...

Almost a haiku.

And the French have nicked the Iceland chant- that's not fair! Germany looking like England, and not in a good way!

It's Germany, never count them out - they're like Utd used to be.

From the BBC feed -

boldaslove: Had England not COMPLETELY underestimated Iceland they could've won this tournament. Makes that performance even harder to take

Oh dear. Germans the architects of their own downfall.

On a side note: No way is Pogba worth £100 mil.

Greizmann living up to his billing. How much would he cost to lever away from Athletico? - £80 million at least I think.

He's a free agent, opted to let his Reading contract run down.

Although the way he played last season, @cheeky you'd have to pay someone to take him.

It's just their night. Germany could play for 24hrs and not score 2 goals.

I bottled it, I've taken another on a goal to be scored before the end of play. That would at least cover my stakes, so i can't lose either way.

It'll just feel like losing.......

I just need either Pogba or Muller to score.

Which is never going to happen, so will just lick my wounds on this one.

I think the French swapped kimmich for one of Jedward before the game, he was bloody awful.

£1 at 18/1, less the £1 I offlaid against another goal, so £18 up.

Big spender me.......

*does some quick maths*

Right. As things stand, if I have no more bets, I'll end the tournament at either -£18 if France win or -£30 if Ronaldo wins.

Roughly £500 in/out. 🙂

Seems a fair amount to add a bit of interest, to let's be honest, some pretty boring games. Not tonight's tho, that was a banger.

Come on France!!! To rescue something at least from my woeful betting form. I had them or Germany to win the whole thing. So I think we can safely say it's Portugals!

I presume everyone is watching ITV's coverage? You can't beat the intelligent, inciteful wisdom of Andy Townsend

Two Russian blokes in bar last night trying to sell us tickets at 1,500€ each, we laughed one Brit and a Swiss - that would be a no mate 😉
