To be honest, I didn't think that the German team played that badly last night, they certainly came very close to scoring in the closing moments, sometimes good teams and players on the right occasion often play well in spite of their coach/manager.
From an England prospective I was questioning why Kane remained on the pitch, as he really achieved very little till the second goal that put the outcome effectively beyond doubt. Overall an entertaining game, but I was not happy with the hissing and booing of the German team especially during their national anthem and the early stages of the game, that was disgraceful.
No-one was more surprised than I when England won, as our track record against Germany in the knock out stages of a competition have less than lived up to the 'billing' since 1966.
I didn't watch it but please clarify for me; are you saying that English supporters booed and hissed the German team during their anthem?
If so it's a sad comment on the times. I would have halted the game, emptied the stadium and invited back in anyone who was prepared to show a sporting attitude.
