Xhaka and Shaqiri are copping a lot of flak for their goal celebrations from some parts of the public.  I noticed it when watching the game but didn't realise what it meant. 

Was very provocative by them but I can see why they did it.  Unfortunately people who subscribe to that specific nationalistic, irridentist ideology were always going to be triggered by it

What’s the point of VAR is something that obvious isn’t reviewed? 

The ref has the discretion not to refer to it apparently. At least in those situations where play continues and it’s not obviously completely wrong.

What a well taken goal though.

Now it’s panic stations for Germany. There’s no evidence so far to suggest they can break Sweden down.

They got close several times in the first 5 minutes.

Not really - a few crosses that no one got on the end of. They had the one cleared off the line, but they haven’t had anything since.
