It was due to French tactics to a large part, they decided to let the Germans play and wait for their mistakes.

Germany misses Lahm.
Germany misses Lahm.
We missed Dahoud or Gundogan a lot more than Lahm.
Is Loew getting canned after this tourney? Germany had similar problems to England here tbh, their individual skill is what brought them so far. Loew had no attack plan tbh, poor selections, poor substitutions, and a lack of defensive presence in central midfield. At least Roy Hodgson draws new players into the team, Loew was relying on out of form players far too much and too reluctant to let guys like Sane play.
That was really disappointing for me, wanted to see Germany in the final and preferably against a better team than Portugal.
Maybe pay attention to what players were left on the pitch at that point and which players were injured, and not able to play today.
In fairness to Germany this wasn't their starting defence.

In fairness to France, this wasn't theirs either.
If only Rami was still in there for Umtiti *sigh*
Or Varane. Or Zouma. Or Laporte...
And if only we had Benzema up front to replace Giroud...
And Ben Arfa instead of Payet (though that one was on DD).
Sure, but 100% healthy teams don't exist in reality.
And we're talking about two really deep teams here. We could probably do two solid teams out of France and Germany backups.
I agree, I was surprised he played every minute of the tournament. Low should have subbed him off more frequently to at least light a fire under his ass.Our problem wasn't a lack of plan B or possession pansies; it was Mueller playing like trash at Euros
