Germany 3-0 Portugal
Posted at56 mins
"Portugal still need to have a threat going forward otherwise you're just defending continuously. But other than that when they lose the ball they've just got to drop into their shape and make it very hard for the Germans to get in behind them. They're playing 4-3-2 now.
"Even when it was 11 v 11 Germany still outnumbered them down the sides of the pitch.
"Muller's been exception in the way he's dropped off and found pockets, Ozil is playing on the right and Kroos and Gotze have really got forward to support. Sometimes they've got seven players forward. They've just looked so fluid."
