England v Germany - It's a Penalty Knock Out

London englandfans 4pm

Hosted by Germania 94, the oldest of Frankfurt's grounds and the historic site where competitive football was first played in Frankfurt, it's a part penalty shoot-out, part obstacle course.

Hit the 1966 crossbar (the ball did cross the line), bend the ball over Jancker, Heskey, Gerrard and three Michael Owens (remember Munich 2001), wear flipper and snorkel to dive Klinsmann style, take a penalty then do a dance  like Peter Crouch or do Roger Milla jig at the corner flag.

And after all this England fans join the German fans to watch Germany v Costa Rica, swap English beer and delicacies for German beer and sausages and face each in a half-time England v Germany pub quiz.
