Germany vs Italy, 2006 - Season 2, Episode 12
In our first of a pair of episodes to finish the season we're picking our greatest games and personal favourites - first up, Chris has opted for the World Cup semi-final in 2006 between the hosts, Germany, and Italy.
Die Mannschaft have ridden a wave of ferocious home support all the way to a semi-final berth while the green shots of Das Reboot are starting to show, while the Italians have thrived against all odds having entered the competition on the back of a calciopoli scandal that rocked the national game. A tense and nervy 118 minutes was followed by two quickfire goals from Fabio Grosso and Alessandro Del Piero to send Italy through to face France in the final a few days later - and we all know what happened there.
This is Germany vs Italy at World Cup 2006.
