1715: The-Kop-Prophet
Equador may have been resting and coasting - but this is a dangerous tactic

1714: bladestosurvive
The disinterest of Ecuador allowed Germany to get away with 3-5-2 for much of the match

1707: moorcat17
Ecuador were happy enough with their effort in their first two matches and clearly weren't bothered whether they faced England or Sweden

1703: Corbu via text
Impressive German show but all they've really achieved is a quarter-final clash with Argentina. 1652: Supersmooth83
No offence but do Equador really deserve to be in the last 16 or are they just not bothering?

1644: PANCHO VILLA
Owen needs a hat-trick tonight if he is going to win the golden boot as he said he would. Klose is looking hard to catch at the moment

1627: Fry
Germany are gaining momentum and I can't see them going out in the second round

1615: PANCHO VILLA
Equador are resting today, qualifying was enough for them

1606: d22ghj
At least we know now that England must win (or draw) against Sweden to be sure of meeting Ecuador in the next round. It has clinched it now.

1600: The-Kop-Prophet
Equador just aren't up for this - no energy or running. They have scored from quick crosses and diagonal runs by Tenorio - but they don't seem interested today

1559: ernham
Klose is just everywhere. He didn't finish any drives against Poland, but he's been rock solid against Costa Rica and now Ecuador.

1545: Whippin' Picidilly
Whoever said Ecuador will get found out earlier was right. England have to finish top for the route to the quarters

1537: iluminated
This match is a bit of a farce. Ecuador seem to be playing with a "que sera, sera" attitude

1507: one_nill_wembley
Hurray, Klose did it again! Top scorer!

1430: Poker Faced White
Ecuador will get found out today.

1429: ABC
2-1 to Germany is my prediction. Podolski and Klose for the Germans; Kaviedes for Ecuador

1425: Sloane
Ecuador played two extremely poor teams in their first two matches and are widely overrated now

1404: jasedeace
I'm hoping Ecuador go for the win, as I think they could turn the Germans over
