Something a bit odd happened tonight. Germany's experience was replaced by a young enthusiasm uncommon to the Europeans and it was quite impressive how they rose to the challenge. The youngest starting 11 of the World Cup so far, provided an excellent display of modern football. So at the end of the 1st half the scoreline was 2-0, with strikes from Podolski and Muller. Australia just couldn't cope with the offensive runs of every and single German player. A lucky header of Cahill rose a bit the morale of the yellows, 2-1. One of the most experienced players on the field, Phillipe Lahm, dribbled his way on the left side and his perfect cross was met by the head of Klose, which closed the match. 3-1 was the final score and Germany just announced their entry in the World Cup race.
MoM: Phillipe Lahm
