1850: FULL-TIME Croatia 2-1 Germany
1847: RED CARD Germany
Bastian Schweinsteiger is brought down by Jerko Leko and responds by shoving the Croatian sub to the ground. Straight red. Leko holds his face in embarrassing fashion. The German's hands went nowhere near there, but Schweinsteiger raised his hands so...1847: Germany have three minutes to salvage a point.
1844: Croatia play a bit of keep-ball down by the corner flag. They're two minutes (plus stoppages) away from only their second win over Germany.
1841: Time for Croatia to shut up shop as attacking midfielder Nico Kranjcar comes off to be replaced by defender Dario Knezevic.
1838: Substitutions a-go-go. Clemsn Fritz off, Kevin Kuranyi on. Darijo Srna off, Jerko Leko on. Croatia have now withdrawn both their goalscorers.
1835: GOAL Croatia 2-1 Germany
Michael Ballack's header down from a Philipp Lahm cross takes a deflection and Lukas Podolski smashes home his third goal of the tournament. Squeaky bum time for Croatia. Eleven minutes remaining.
