2' CHANCE! Gnabry's shot saved by Cillessen
15' GOAL! Netherlands 0-1 Germany (Sane)
GOOOOOAAAALLL!!! NETHERLANDS 0-1 GERMANY! He may not be a striker by trade, but Sane knows how to play this role and he has repaid his manager's faith by opening the scoring in Amsterdam with a fine finish across Cillessen. Kroos plays the ball in behind for Schulz and the left-sided cross falls nicely for Sane, who makes the most of a costly slip from De Ligt to rocket it into the far corner.
25' SAVE! Fine stop from Neuer
27' Great save from Neuer
34' GOAL! Netherlands 0-2 Germany (Gnabry)
GOOOOOAAALLL!!! NETHERLANDS 0-2 GERMANY! This is a special goal from Gnabry! Van Dijk does not close down the German attacker quickly enough, which proves costly as he cuts inside from the left and curls the ball past Cillessen from 18 yards. Far too casual from Van Dij..
40' Excellent save from Cillessen!
48' GOAL! Netherlands 1-2 Germany (De Ligt)
GOOOOOAAALLL!!! NETHERLANDS 1-2 GERMANY! De Ligt, at fault in the build-up to Germany's opening goal, gives his side a lifeline. The Netherlands make a mess of the corner, but it is only half-cleared by the visitors and Depay's flat delivery is glanced goalwards from the edge of the six-yard box by De Ligt, finding the inside of the net.
63' GOAL! Netherlands 2-2 Germany (Depay)
GOOOOOOAAALLL!!! NETHERLANDS 2-2 GERMANY! Depay drags the hosts back on level terms from two goals down - as was the case when these sides last met. Despite having two players on top of him, Depay refuses to give up the ball and manages to drag his shot away from Neuer into the bottom corner after being teed up by Wijnaldum. Terrible defending!
90' GOAL! Netherlands 2-3 Germany (Schulz)
GOOOOAAALLLL!!!!! NETHERLANDS 2-3 GERMANY! Unbelievable! Germany have not really looked interested in scoring in this second half, but Schulz has just snatched them all three points. Gundogan slots the ball through for fellow sub Reus, who cuts it back to Schulz 12 yards out. The midfielder's right-footed shot spins away from Cillessen for what will surely be the winner.
