Germany OUT on penalties… and it’s Paraguay who do it.

A result you don’t hear often, but they’ve pulled it off in dramatic fashion after a 1-1 draw, winning 4-3 on penalties.

Another early exit for Germany, who once again fall short of the Round of 16 since their World Cup triumphs of the past.

Massive credit to Paraguay, calm, clinical, and fearless when it mattered most.

And we are off to Penalty shootout!

[SammyTakes @Sammytakes]

I’ve watched Florian Wirtz several times and I just don’t see the hype yet.
It feels like he plays the game in a different rhythm to everyone else, almost like it’s all happening in slow motion for him while others are sprinting through it.
Technically okay, but I’m still waiting for that “wow” factor people keep talking about.
