Germany 0 – Italy 2 (After Extra-Time) – World Cup 2006
Trending
Another absolutely heartbreaking result for a German team playing the 2006 World Cup on home soil. This was an absolute humdinger of a match, goalless in normal time before two amazing extra-time goals by Fabio Grosso and Juve legend Alessandro Del Piero (who scored with the most exquisite of chips) saw the Italians crush German hearts, and send them out in the semi-finals.
Man of the Match? Andrea Pirlo. How thrilled they must be he isn’t in the team for Euro 2016.
After this performance, Italy would go on to win the competition while it would take Germany another 8 years before they got their hands on the trophy themselves.
