"Paul Scholes is muscled off the ball deep in his own half. His recovery tackle is deemed too physical by the referee who awards the Germans a free-kick. Hamann takes a crack before England assemble a decent wall. The skidding shot accelerates off the bounce, zipping past Seaman's belated lunge." Dietmar Hamann, 14'13:13
