Özil, are you kidding me? Are you even trying? You can't fool me, you cheeky bastard!

Looming stats for Germany if they go through. 22/32 teams going to extra time in the WC goes on to lose the next match. In SA it's 4/5.

Ozil is such a joker, everyone in the universe knew he'd try and drag that back inside.

What do you think he was trying to do, cross it? pass it?

The ball was played behind him, it was a very good bit of improvisation.
He was obviously trying to flick it in but not to the extent that it hit his heel and bounced up, which is how it bet the keeper.

That isn't a fluke. He tried to do it. He may have gotten lucky that it went in, but he absolutely, 100% meant to direct the ball with his trailing leg.

Why isn't Draxler ever considered? Is he injured or something? Thought he'd be perfect when Reus was declared injured.
Right now Schürrle is the better player, but I expect Draxler to overtake him in the coming years.

Unlucky :(

Good on Algeria keeping the challenge up, I thought they would lose their legs completely
