I hate the impression others may get at the seemingly 'clutching at straws' reference of the disallowed goal but it may have changed it considerably, we'll never know.
I'd like to think that, had it been 2-2, we wouldn't have had 9 players on the edge of the Germans' penalty area in the second half and left ourselves open to such ruthless (and inevitable) counter-attacks.
We defended woefully though and never had a team that could go all the way whereas the Germans do so the right team went through.
