    Porto Alegre is doing its best Port Talbot impression this evening.
    Our friends from BBC weather tell us that "a low pressure system positioned just off the coast of southeast Brazil will make for a cloudy skies in Porto Alegre for this evening's World Cup tie between Germany and Algeria.
    "There will also be the risk of a few showers, with a moderate westerly wind and temperatures of around 15C."
    Chilly...

    What was Neuer doing? Lucky to get away with that.

    Germany living dangerously with Neuer coming out of his goal to make the challenge to a great through ball by Algeria.

    The blistering pace of the Algerian attack is going to really test the German defence on what we've seen so far.

    Nice dive mertersacker!

    Even the 6ft 6" defenders have no self respect.

    Really nifty move by Algeria - poor final cross/shot.

    Algeria just goes on and on, too bad they are not scoring with these opportunities - Germany is the type of side that has a knack of riding out such adversities, then taking advantage later in the match.

    Hockey and Baseball teams here in the US get to final with either best of 5 or 7. Rarely does does a minnow get thru". Perhaps they should change to one game knockout!

    Justice for 1982 may be on the cards. I sure hope so.

    And then Algeria can go on to avenge the fact that the best every Algerian (well, sort of) footballer played for France!

    Germans once again stretched in defence - Neuer out to save the day.
