Match Commentary

90'
Klinsmann's substitutes have saved the day for the Germans and given them maximum points from their first two games. The Germans deserve their victory although a combination of Artur Boruc and some poor finishing made it look as if the Poles would go home the happier. As it is, they will now just go home.

Oliver Neuville scores in the very last minute. Odonkor sucks in the Polish defence wide on the right before crossing perfectly for his fellow substitute to break Polish hearts from six yards out.
