Fabulous participant, a large in an all-time-great West Germany facet. Additionally, he was the attacking equal of Hurst and Mbappé towards the Netherlands at Italia 90!

Half-time studying
Half time: Flamengo 1-3 Bayern
Flamengo have been Bayern’s equals for 99 per cent of the primary half and scored one of the best of the 4 targets when Gerson’s howitzer beat Manuel Neuer. Alas, the 1 per cent concerned the concession of three eminently avoidable targets. Consequently, Flamengo want a comeback for the ages.

45+4 min “He’d deny it, in fact, however i wouldn’t be shocked if Neuer was secretly relieved that Gerson’s shot was above his head giving him little probability to put it aside,” writes David Wall. “Had it been half a metre decrease the goalkeeper may need stopped it however he’d have recognized even much less about it than he did because it screamed over his head. Not less than this manner he’ll know one thing about the remainder of the sport as a substitute.”
Ha, fairly. I can really feel a listing piece approaching. The Pleasure of Six: goalkeepers saving with their face.
45+2 min Allan’s first motion is a pointless late shove on Kimmich, for which he’s booked.
45+1 min: Flamengo substitution Yep, Allan replaces Erick Pulgar, who had sport to neglect. He gave Bayern the lead with an personal objective, then injured himself with a nasty foul on Harry Kane.

In different information, there will probably be eight minutes of added time.
45 min Kane is okay however Pulgar could have injured himself with that foul.
