...Hans-Jürgen Bernsee, 66, has lived in the same house in Prenzlauer Berg since 1970.

He launched a stunning free kick, a stop-this-if you-can pile driver from outside the box that beat Austrian keeper Jürgen Macho to his left. In the Fan Zone, clusters of German fans celebrated, and those celebrants in front of me were greeted with a shower of beer, but that was the extent of the hooliganism. There simply wasn't much to get mad about. Austria wasn't good enough...
