WC2006: The Host Takes 3rd

Germany seized bronze after edged Portugal 3-1. Bastian Schweinsteiger was hailed as the man of the match after scoring 2 long range goals and induced the other goal, as Petit deflected in his free-kick in to Ricardo's net. Poor Petit, he was in for Costinha in second half. And Klose had to satisfy with 5 goals, same number of goals as 4 years ago. This also a farewell match for Luis Figo and Oli Kahn. Both showed great performance, as Kahn made several saves and Figo feed Nuno Gomes for Portugal's only goal.

4 goals in 45 minutes, definitely worth staying awake...
