Any fans planning to leave matches early to beat the traffic at Euro 2016 had better think again. From the opening 23 games of the tournament there have been no fewer than 13 goals scored in the 87th minute or later.

Vasili Berezutski's stoppage-time header cancelled out Eric Dier's 20-yard strike and rescued a point for below-par Russia.

Bastian Schweinsteiger came off the bench in stoppage time and promptly volleyed Germany's killer second from a counter-attack.
