Saturday’s penalty shoot-out between Germany had it all – twists, turns, drama, farce, heartbreak, joy and moments that will live long in the consciousness of both sets of fans.
And it’s summed up nicely here – or half of it is, at least – in this 12-second clip by Kurt Prödel, which superimposes each German penalty to show them as if they were taken at once.
It’s a bit hard to stop watching on a loop, particularly as you try to match each ball to the corresponding reaction from Italian ‘keeper Gianluigi Buffon.
Lovely stuff.
