Quite right, Skully.
Kroos has been for so long a talisman of the Germany team. He's there tonight when they need him with one of the best free kicks I've ever seen. There's been quite a few great goals to choose from already during this World Cup to be fair and there's another one.
There's obviously still faults they need to iron out. The center backs, Boateng and Rudiger were hopeless at times. There's still problems there with the shape and the apparent discontent in and around the squad and the training camp. However this may go a long way to galvanising them and they'll probably have the lift they need to get their campaign going. You can never write off the Germans. Still work for them to do, but for me their ability to snatch a result out of the fire still makes them good enough for at least a run to the semi-finals.
