    Almost a delightful little set up from Nico Williams. He carries the ball down the right and chips a ball designed for Koke. It just evades him and Germany clear.

    Fullkrug might not be a household name. But he has 10 goals for Werder Bremen this season. he has to provide that punch up top, or Spain are going to ease home.

    For as hard as Germany have worked, you can't really say anything else than that. They haven't had a threat up front.

    They have worked hard and tried to upset the game but it is clear what they are lacking.

    Here come the German changes.

    Can Leroy Sane, Lukas Klostermann and Niclas Füllkrug provide the attacking spark they so desperately need in the remaining 20 minutes?

    So simple. Pass left. Cross. Goal.

    Spain must be wondering why it's taken so long to unlock the door.

    Spain 1-0 Germany

    Some very glum German faces now in the crowd.

    This is a nightmare scenario now. 1-0 down, with 20-odd minutes left in a crucial game against one of the best possession-protecting sides in the game.

    That is what is going to happen now, we're going to see spaces for Spain as Germany open up.

    Germany are on the ropes at this World Cup. They wasted a free-kick in a dangerous position and 60 seconds later have paid the price.

    Watching the match in Spain. After that goal, the commentator went absolutely mental.

    This could get messy very quickly for Germany.

    They leave big gaps at the back for Spain to work the ball across the box for Marco Asensio to fire a shot over the bar.

    The place has come to life.

    The red and yellow flags are waving, the Spaniards are dancing and Germany need a BIG response.

    Can they find it?

    When you make a substitution as a manager you want them to make an impact and what an impact he's had!

    Now we might have a game on our hands.

    Germany look to hit back immediately, but Leon Goretzka's shot from range is blocked.

    What a fantastically-worked goal. We're just talking about Olmo losing the dall with Kehrer.

    It was from Olmo's side and the pass into Morata was perfect.

    The Spanish technical team are celebrating with the coach because he's just taken the decision to bring him on.

    That is what happens when you've got a centre forward in the box. Two minutes ago we saw nobody attack a cross for Germany.

    His movement across the near post is fantastic. He's just requiring the cross.

    Spain move the ball really well. He just has a flick with the outside of his boot. It is a good, clever finish. He's too quick for the defender.

    The game might open up now.

    Alvaro Morata

    Great finish!

    Alvaro Morata's first proper act in the Germany box is to attack the near post and get in ahead of Niklas Sule to produce a brilliant flicked finish to divert Jordi Alba's low cross past Manuel Neuer.

    It's a hammer blow to Germany. They need something big now!

    What a prospect Musiala is. He could've played for England, he's chosen Germany. It's not just that he's doing little tricks, nearly every decision he makes has been the correct one.

    It's another poor delivery into the box. Goal kick to Spain.

    Germany have looked most threatening from free-kicks.

    They have another in Spain's half.

    There lies the problem for Germany.

    They had three people in the box there but they were all static, nobody was attacking the ball.

    You can't do that. A striker would attack that.

    That must frustrate the manager.
