As the game went on, Germany became more predictable. They gave the ball away to much, and the entire team's 1st touch was off, made even worse by Croatia constantly closing down space in midfield.
Croatia were more effecient with their possession, and were unlucky to not score a 3rd (Kranjcar skied it).
Croatia are starting to live upto the hype they entered the tournament with. They were the better team throughout the match and deserved their win. Germany will rebound though. It's better they get this out of their system now than in the knock outs.
