Germany, as they would play Slovakia. Joachim Loew's men lost to the Balkan side 3-1 in a friendly before the event, but this time Die Manschaft would be airtight at the back, as the three-time Euro champs did not concede a goal for the fourth straight game, and roll into the quarter-finals.

Germany have a corner in the eight minute and it looks to be cleared away by the Slovaks, but Jerome Boateng connects perfect to volley home from 25 metres for his first international goal. 1-nil for Germans thanks to the Bayern Munich defender

Second half and Julian Draxler then makes moves and beats his man to the byline and square for Mario Gomez to stab the ball home from close range to make it 2-0.

And the Wolfsburg man, who was the best player for the Germans would get on the scoresheet in the second half -- roundhouse kicking this ball into the net off a corner. Hii-yaaa, that goal makes it 3-nil, as the World champs advance to the Last eight and await the winner of the Spain and Italy contest tonight.
