EURO 2008 highlights: Portugal 2-3 Germany

St. Jakob Park in Basel. It's the biggest Swiss arena for these European Championships. It holds 40,000. Another good cross. Jean Moutinho had nipped in there. Podolski, Schweinsteiger arriving. Bastian Schweinsteiger! Germany have taken the lead! And it was a lightning quick run as well from Schweinsteiger to get on the end of that cross. Got that ahead of Paulo Ferreira. And it's Seldes forward, Mertesacker in there. It's delivered beautifully. It's the second goal for Germany. It's Mertesacker, Kloser has got it. Kloser was making the late run. He was onside. And he wasn't picked up. And it's Germany now have a 2-0 lead. Dekker. Now Samah. Here's Cristiano Ronaldo. It's Cristiano Ronaldo! Now Gomes! Nuno Gomes has pulled the goal back for Portugal. It was Nuno Gomes who was following up. And despite the presence there of Metzelder on the goal line, Portugal now have something to aim at. Ronaldo. Confronted by Mertesacker. It's a brilliant effort by Cristiano Ronaldo. No back lift, but that really flew off his right foot. Bozinga's in there. Pepe's in there. And it's Pepe with a header over the top. Great chance for Portugal. Will they make a difference with this free kick? Set up Kloser already for one goal. Ballack's in there! Michael Ballack has made it 3-1 now to Germany. Delivery identical. The move was identical. And this time nobody picked up Ballack. And it was a straightforward enough error. Got him behind Paulo Ferreira. Pepe woefully out of position. Challenge there by Ballack. And getting away from Michael Ballack. Terrific work by Nani! Halder-Bastiger! Just managed to get in between Metzelder and Mertesacker. Referee's had another look at his watch. And it is Germany who are on their way to the semi-finals. Germany with this incredible record in the knockout stages of the European Championships. 12 knockout games they've played. They've won 10 of them.
