Highlights

90+4'

What a finish. It ends Germany 1-1 Republic of Ireland, and Ireland have stolen a point here!

90+4'

GOAL: Germany 1-1 Republic of Ireland. John O'Shea equalises from close range on his 100th appearance. Hoolahan's cross is kept alive by Hendrick and O'Shea gets in front of Hummels to net!!

90+3'

McClean's half volley is cleared, then Hoolahan loses the ball as Ireland look to build again.

90+2'

Another loose pass from Gibson when there was a man over on the left, and Rudiger clears.

90+1'

Kruse gets in a cross from the left but the linesman waves for offside.

90'

Four minutes of additional time, and Hoolahan is pushed off the ball on an Ireland break as he looks to set up McGeady.

89'

Ireland try to break again, but Gibson is again wasteful with possession.

88'

Ward seems to be running freely now. Gibson and manager O'Neill exchange words after the Everton midfielder gives the ball away.

87'

It looks like it is not going to be Ireland's night in Gelsenkirchen.

86'

Sebastian Rudy replaces Bellarabi in Germany's third and final substitution.

85'

Hummels gets a yellow card for a foul on Walters in the build-up to that chance.

84'

WHAT A CHANCE: Gibson sets up McClean, whose cross finds Hoolahan, but Durm makes a brilliant block.

83'

Wilson's tired long ball to McClean is straight into touch. Meyler then makes a great block to stop a Podolski shot.

82'

Ireland are down to ten men for a moment. Ward is now back on, but moving very gingerly.

81'

Ward is down injured after falling on his ankle and Ireland have already used their three substitutions. Roy Keane has a shout at the fourth official for some reason.

80'

GOOD SAVE: Forde blocks well at his near post as Gotze attempts the chip from the right channel from Podolski's intricate pass.

79'

O'Shea gives away the ball but Forde is out quickly to snuff out the danger from Bellarabi.

78'

O'Shea heads clear Kroos' corner, and Boateng's curled second ball effort is easily caught by Forde.

77'

Rudiger sees a shot deflect off Ward and Germany have the corner.

76'

Gibson gives the ball away in midfield but Boateng is equally wasteful and gives the ball away himself.
