  • "Robinson is in a fragile state. After 26 minutes he coped with Thomas Hitzlsperger's shot but when the ball was cleared to Bernd Schneider on the right the Germany captain's cross was neither caught nor pushed over the bar. Robinson seemed to lose his positioning, fearing he did not have room to shove the ball over the bar. Instead he tapped it down and Kevin Kuranyi knocked in the equaliser." Kevin Kurányi, 26'25:26
  • "Lahm, after [39] minutes, slipped a pass to Pander and his brutal drive from 22 yards ripped past Robinson." Christian Pander, 40'39:17
