Home shorts as worn by Jürgen Klinsmann's side during their home tournament in 2006. Goals from Miroslav Klose and Lukas Podolski proved to be the difference for Die Mannschaft during the Group stage who then eased past a Sweden side boasting Henrik Larsson and Zlatan Ibrahimović in the Round of 16. Penalties proved to favour the Germans once again as they beat Argentina 4-2 from the spot in the Quarter-finals. The Semi-final was set up against Italy at the Signal Iduna Park, proving to be a tight encounter between the two and was eventually decided by two dramatic late goals in extra-time by Fabio Grosso and Juve legend Alessandro Del Piero. There was some consolation for the Germans as they faced Portugal in the Third-place play-off which saw them come out 3-1 winners thanks to two Bastian Schweinsteiger goals, securing the bronze medal.
