- So the score is still Germany 2, Italy 1. Only 2 minutes to go, and it’s almost over now for Italy. If they lose this match, they’ll be out of the World Cup. Germany are still in control, Pilzbaun’s got the ball – he passes it to Schinkenbrot.
- How different the two teams are – the Germans play like a perfect machine.
- Almost – Pipstrelli’s coming up now- he’s got the ball he passes it to Lucertola- Lucertola’s got a chance now.
- Come on, Italy, Come on!
- It’s 2 to 1 Marco. We’re going to win!
- So will Lucertola take his chance? Nom Fussknodel’s coming up on his might – It’s too late. It’s a goal¹.
- It’ s another GOAL for Italy!!!
- So with that last incredible² goal by Lucertola, 5 seconds before the end. The final score is Germany 2, Italy 2 – It’s a draw!
- What will this mean to Germany’s Cup chances now? That was an amazing watch. Thanks a lot, Marco.
- Don’t thank me, thank Pilzbaum. Well – no – you can thank me too, if you like.
- What do we do now? Why don’t we go for a meal? There is a nice Chinese restaurant near here.

- What’s the time?
- It’s half past tin³, I have to get up early tomorrow.
