"...Pearce fouled the busy little Hässler as he tried to take the ball wide and Thon tapped the free-kick to Brehme whose shot ricocheted off Parker as the full-back tried to intercept it. The ball flew over the defence in a high arc and Shilton, caught a couple of yards off his line, could not get to the ball as it floated under the bar."Andreas Brehme, 60' 59:27

Assist: Paul Parker. "With 10 minutes of normal time remaining [Parker's] teasing cross found Kohler and Augenthaler, the sweeper, in a dither. As the ball dropped, Lineker dragged it wide of Augenthaler's slow turn and placed it firmly past Illgner's flailing right hand for his fourth goal of the tournament."Gary Lineker35th of 48 goals.

Notes
Player InjuryRudi Völler seems to pull a calf muscle as he chases a ball with Des Walker [32:11]. He hobbles off the pitch and receives lengthy treatment but has to be replaced by Reidle [38:00].
Player MilestoneTerry Butcher's Last Cap
Penalty ShootoutWest Germany win 4-3 on penalties
Gary LinekerScored - Thumped low to Illgner's right. The keeper goes the wrong way.
Andreas BrehmeScored - Similar to Lineker's penalty but more placed into the corner than with speed. Shilton guesses rcorrect but it's well out of his reach of his right hand.
Peter BeardsleyScored - High to Illgner's left. No chance.
Lothar MatthäusScored - Another thumping into the side netting to Shilton's right. No chance.
David PlattScored - Passed into the middle of the net to Illgner's right. The keeper gets a hand to it but he can't keep it out.
Karl-Heinz RiedleScored - Similar to Beardsley's penalty. High to Shilton's left. No chance.
Stuart PearceSaved - Thumped down the middle, Illgner had dived to his right but managed to get his left knee in the way. Hit with such force the ball ricochets all the way back to the centre circle.
Olaf ThonScored - Passed into the net to Shilton's left. The keeper takes a small step to his right in anticipation, which is his undoing, and then throws himself to the left but somehow is nowhere near it.
Chris WaddleShoots Over - Ballooned over the bar with such force it probably is still going.
England's first penalty shootout
