    Germany 4-4 Sweden, One of the great comeback in Footbal history, Miraslov Klose equal Gerd Muller's record of 68 goals for the national team, overall it was an exciting night football game. 
    The final score between the two top teams. Germany scored four goals one after another to lead the game 4-0 till 61st minute until Ibrahimovic's header pull down the score to 4-1 in the 62nd minute from an amazing loop ball from Kim Kallstrom. And after just two minute defender M. Lustig finds the net from a pass by Kim Kallstrom. Extraordinarily, the Swedes came to within one goal of the hosts, stunning the Berlin crowd in the process. In space on the left, Alexander Kacanikilic picked out Elmander who beat Holger Badstuber to the ball and poked it in at the far post.
   Tobias Sana blazed over in front of an open goal in the 85th minute but unperturbed, Sweden found the equaliser at the death. A cross from the left was not dealt with by Mertesacker and his loose header fell to Elm who volleyed in to complete the fightback in the injury time.
   Miroslav Klose got the hosts off to a brilliant start as he netted two early goals, putting him one strike away from equaling Gerd Muller's record of 68 goals for the national team. Per Mertesacker added another before the break and soon after the restart Mesut Ozil gave Joachim Low's side a comfortable lead.
    The Blagult had no such luck on the next German attack as die Mannschaft took the lead in the eighth minute. Philipp Lahm played Marco Reus in at the byeline and his cutback was smashed into the top corner by Klose to finish a brilliant move.
  Things only got better for the hosts as Klose added his second in the 15th minute following some intricate one-touch play. Reus initiated the move, slaloming his way into the box with two successive one-twos, before pulling the ball back to the 34-year-old who fired home at the second time of asking.

Equals Gerd Muller, record of 68 goals
  After stepping off the gas midway through the half Low's men soon reasserted themselves and following Isaksson's save to keep Reus out, they got their third in the 39th minute. A cross from the left was kept in play at the back post by Muller, whose looped header was rifled past the keeper by an unmarked Mertesacker
   Germany did not let up after the break and after Muller was once again denied by Isaksson, a four-goal cushion was achieved in the 56th minute. At the end of a swift break, Muller delivered a cross that found Ozil at the back post. The Real Madrid man controlled the ball on his chest before angling a shot into the far corner.
