The Hungarian goal has sent Germany to the bottom of the group as things stand. (I'm watching that game on German TV at the same time as the France v Portugal game on BBC).

Its all Germany. Battering them.
I think a goal for France saves Germany and puts Portugal out (as it stands).
Long way to go yet. Hungary starting to hang on. This would be quite a backs to the wall effort.
C'mon Germany!
Another good game. Good football p!ssing down tackles flying in great stuff.
Incredible. Germany equalise and Hungary regain the lead straight from kick off.
Who said scrap the groups? Great stuff.
Incredible stuff, this.
Another twist somewhere surely.
