HOW DID THEY GET IT SO WRONG?

MARTIN KEOWN

WHY make five changes to the side who beat Sweden? The manager should have stayed loyal to the players who pulled off that rescue act. There didn’t seem to be any stability.

AS soon as they left Leroy Sane at home I thought they’d be in trouble. That decision was arrogance of the highest level from Joachim Low. Sane’s stock will soar as a result of their exit.

GERMANY’S failure was summed up by goalkeeper Manuel Neuer’s decision to play on the wing in stoppage time. You would not see that in a pub league. They lacked coherence and consistency at this World Cup and the manager has to carry the can.
