Fifa World Cup 2014 Quarter-Finals France vs. Germany

This was a very interesting game. France, after finishing 1st in their group with two wins and one tie and eliminating Nigeria 2-0 takes on Germany, who beat Algeria 2-1 in the 119th minute because of Algerian defender Esseid Belkalem's error. The game kicked off to a rough start for France as Thomas Mueller heads the ball to the top right corner beating Hugo Lloris as Germany leads 1-0 in minute 13. For me, even though Mueller scored the player of the game was Mathieu Valbuena. He had so many close chances but German goalie Manuel Neuer blocked every single shot. The game ended 1-0, even though I think France played better. France shoud've won, but Germany earned a spot in the semi-finals vs. the winner of Brazil and Colombia.
