It was a night of heavy rain and the game was delayed by more than an hour before Germany was humbled by neighboring nation Austria!
However, the game started promisingly for Germany when a clearance was hit straight into the path of Ozil who controlled it elegantly before finishing it calmly into the far corner of the goal. Thereafter, while Germany played most of the attacking football, the finishing touch was missing.
After the start of the second half, Hinteregger scored volleyed from a corner to find the back of the net even before Neuer could react to his shot! On the 70th minute mark again, Neuer was beaten by a shot from Schopf. Even though Germany missed the presence of players like Jerome Boateng and Mats Hummels, this game should be a wakeup call for the sleeping giants of Germany.
