Tempers are fraying. There's a decent chance we get some scuffles in the remaining hour, everything that NO ONE wants to see.

You can follow along with the other game here...

Meanwhile, Ronaldo has just slammed home a penalty for Portugal, awarded after Lloris reached a punch before Danilo, but landed a right hand on his chops subsequently. It's very harsh but Ronaldo isn't bothered, and as it stands now, Portugal win the group, France come second and meet England, Hungary are third and Germany are nowhere.

Now Gundogan's booked, trying to flick a nutmeg through Kleinheiser's legs, then yaking him down when it doesn't work.

Gundogan eases away from Botka, who canes through the back of him and is booked. If Hungary reach the knockouts, he'll be suspended.

Over it comes, to Hummels at the back post, but he gets under it and plops it over the bar.
26'
Germany are actually using Ginter for width on the right, and he finds Kimmich who's flattened by Fiola. He's not at all pleased, and Kroos will now swing over a free-kick...

More Germany possession, but I think they need to stick Sane and Gnabry through the middle, stick Havertz in behind and use the wing-backs for width.

We got ourselves a ball-game! Germany keep the ball alive and when it's knocked back over the top, Ginter is still up and he flings his entire body into half-volley with the outside of his boot - from close range too - but Gulasci saves easily enough.

Germany win a corner down the right and Kimmich swings it out towards the back post and Hummels is up above Orban ... but he hammers his header against the bar!

Paul Pogba fancies this tournament.
19'
It's games like this where Germany's lack of centre-forwards works against them. When a side plays five at the back, one of the best ways to penetrate is with two centre-forwards, and currently Germany don't even have one.

Havertz has had enough, driving to the line and clipping back a inviting low cross. But with Gnabry in the middle and Gosens tanking in, Gulasci dives to impart a crucial fingertip which takes it away from both. It won't be seen as such, but that is a brilliant save.
15'
If France beat Portugal, England will play Hungary, with Italy, Belgium, France and Portugal all in the other half of the draw. I doubt things'll work out that way, but that would be a touch and a half.
13'
When the goal came, I was talking about Leroy Sane, who I'd hoped would be better and more consistent by now. He's still good, obviously, but with his talent, by 25 he should be brilliant.
12'
This is going to get extremely intense now. Germany have never gone out of consecutive tournaments in the group stages, but they're in serious danger now!

Goodness me!

WHAT A GOAL! Germany 0-1 Hungary (Szalai) Hungary work it through midfield nicely, then Sallai takes possession 30 yards from goal, right-hand side, and curves a delectable cross into the middle, where Sallai contorts his body into a dive that forces his head behind the ball, and he powers a glance low past Neuer. Brilliant cross, unbelievable header, and as things stand Hungary are going through and Germany are going out!
10'
Ginter whacks a ball at Sane who brings it down nicely and knocks off well. Nothing comes of it, but EXCUSE ME WHILE I INTERRUPT MYSELF!
