Algeria were fantastic.
Germany are going to have to hope that Hummels recovers from flu in time for Friday; and Low needs to now play Lahm at RB. Boateng, Howedes and Metresacker have all looked shaky at times; with the latter two in particular. Schweinsteiger and Khedira need to start together, and Schurrle should also start ahead of Gotze - who, has been underwhelming in this WC. Germany-France, IMHO will probably be a close game - France need to start Greizmann, whose entrance changed the tempo completely versus Nigeria, and Oliver Giroud seems to find new ways not to score - France need to start Benzema upfront rather than on the left. I think that way, with some pace (which Germany's defense is quite vulnerable against) and France's talent midfield they'll be poised to give Germany a very hard indeed. That said, Germany can offer pace too, in the form of Schurrle, and although Muller had an off day today, he's generally a goal threat.
Neuer was the MOTM - fantastic goal-keeping, and may just well save Germany versus France. Should be a very interesting game - I suspect if the conditions are very heated and humid on Friday, the first half may have quite a slow and lethargic tempo - with the game becoming more open in the second half. I think both Holland and Germany went for a strategy of conversing energy earlier on in the game in light of the conditions, and perhaps hoping their oppositions would wear themselves out with a high tempo game.
Should be a very interesting set of quarter-finals!
