What?
He played with a false nine when Klose wasn't starting. When Klose played he played the only thing he could. A Number 9.
Also, the point is, when we played without a Number 9, there were always at least Players like Müller who may not be a central Striker, but can still play striker. Today we play only with Defenders and Midfielders.

Gotta say that Chile's National Anthem sounds epic, especially when people in the stadium sing along.

Yep it's great. I remember Zamorano and Salas belting it out at World Cup '98 when I was a kid.

He's been trash this tournament so hopefully Osorio starts Layún as the right back. Still hope he recovers.

What was Löw's idea? Why this team?
ter Stegen is infamously bad in the national team, I would've preferred Leno despite the Australia game.
Holy shit Mustafi.

Beautiful game so far, Germany still has really nice moves.
I'm glad the way Chile is playing.

Fuck, nice goal, but undeserved.
Ahh well, second half will be even more interesting.
EDIT: Daaamn, I need to go out and I will miss the second half

That was totally deserved. You guys let your guard down.

That's just wrong. Just because Klose can move around the field a bit and pull back, that doesn't make him a false 9. A false 9 is a striker like Muller or Goetze whose not a traditional striker.

I mean undeserved in the sense that Chile has been the team trying all the time and Germany has been waiting in their side, most of the time.
But yeah, it was a beautiful goal. A fine example of counter attack.

Man, Chile is looking bad against Germany B/C team
Germany's B team would beat most teams in Europe, pretty easily. Most of these players people think are fringe players, play for top clubs in Germany/Europe & are coming off great seasons.
No, he's right, both sides are even, and we should be winning at least by a small margin already
We definitely should since that could've easily been a red card for Mustafi if the ref wasn't blind. Either way, just like France's B/C team, they're no pushovers.
I'd want this as the final and not semi. It'd make for a great end to a boring tourney so far.

Lots of calls going Mexico's way
What calls? They've all been correct.
