Klose finds himself through on goal but he drills a low shot straight at the keeper to sum up his own below-par night

The German fans are beginning to anticipate a mouth-watering quarter-final showdown with Portugal on Thursday - but they'll need to improve on this performance against the Group A winners

To Austria's credit they are refusing to throw in the towel but they're unlikely to prise open the German defence at this late stage

Joachim Low looks fairly relaxed in the stands but it has been anything other than a comfortable night for the Germany coach

Hoffer turns in the box but rifles a left-foot shot well wide of Lehmann's goal as time begins to tick on Austria's stay in this tournament

Lahm saves his side as Andreas Ivanschitz bundles his way through two tackles and was ready to shoot from 12 yards before the full-back's intervention

Frings' corner deflects off the head of Garics but it's straight at Macho who manages to punch clear despite knowing little about it

Macho dives in bravely at the feet of Klose to stop the striker from sliding the ball under him from a one-on-one and requires treatment to an chest injury

Stranzl lifts an ambitious through ball straight out of play and that has been the story of Austria's night so far

Josef Hickersberger cuts a forlorn figure in the stands as his team are just lacking quality in the final third

Klose has a half-chance from a tight angle but produces a feeble sliced shot which is comfortably wide to continue his poor night

Lehmann flaps at a corner but escapes as the whistle blows for a foul on the keeper by Stranzl

The dogged Lahm blocks two crosses from Korkmaz as Germany remain on the back foot

Ballack plays Podolski down the line but he tries to beat his marker rather than pick out the unmarked Klose and loses the ball - that was really selfish play

Mertesacker gets his leg to a cross which Kienast was shaping to meet with a first-time effort from just eight yards

Klose takes a driven through ball superbly in his stride but the outstretched leg of Pogatetz deflects his shot behind for a corner - that was quality defending

Lehmann plucks a hanging cross out of the air to relieve the pressure on his defence - the Austrian's are beginning to believe they might score here

Pogatetz is fortunate to escape a caution for reacting angrily to a decision from the referee - he is on a last warning now

Friedrich blocks a potentially dangerous cross with an outstretched leg and perhaps Austria aren't out of this just yet?

Austria are starting to look like a beaten side as that Ballack strike has taken the wind out of their sails- there's still plenty of time left though

Podolski goes for goal from 30 yards with a sweeping left-foot drive but it rolls just the wrong side of the post

Lahm cuts inside from the left flank but drags a low shot comfortably wide of the upright to end a promising break on a bad note

The German contingent inside the stadium are in full voice now as they begin to anticipate a place in the quarter-finals

Per Mertesacker gets away with a clanger as he looses the ball but Hoffer tries to do too much and beat two defenders when a pass to Korkmaz would have opened up Germany

Germany have carved out the better of what few chances we've seen in a disappointing first half, but really it is Austria who have played the better football

Frings whips in a cross which is wildly over-hit and the isolated Germany strikers have a look of utter bemusement on their faces

Both Josef Hickersberger and Joachim Low have been sent to the stands by the Spanish referee and the atmosphere inside the stadium has been cranked up a few notches

Austria are certainly finishing this half the stronger of the two sides and the home fans are enjoying this!

Joachim Low looks thoroughly unimpressed with his side's efforts so far and the German players could well be in line for a half-time dressing down

Korkmaz drills over a cross from the right which Christian Fuchs can only head well off target in what was only a half-chance

Podolski feeds Ballack who looks to latch onto a lofted return pass but the defence holds firm and Macho claims ahead of the striker

Klose wins a corner with a towering header but his effort from 12 yards bounces comfortably wide of the mark

Klose nods down a Philipp Lahm cross looking for Gomez but it's too close to the keeper who claims

Germany just haven't clicked in the final third so far and Klose, Podolski and Gomez have been peripheral figures

Aufhauser and Podolski are involved in an off-the-ball incident but the referee is happy to let the pair off with a warning - the Austria skipper appeared to raise his hands there and is lucky to avoid at least a caution

Macho dives smartly to his left to palm a powerful low Podolski drive from 20 yards around his upright - that was close to beating the keeper but in the end he did well

Lehmann tips a Rene Aufhauser shot from 20 yards around his post - the effort was already going wide but the veteran keeper wasn't 100 per cent sure of his bearings

Lehmann is alert to come sprinting off his line and take the ball off the toes of Hoffer who had beaten the offside trap and was looking to control a clever reverse pass into the danger zone

Metzelder is back in the action almost immediately as he hooks clear an early cross looking for Umit Korkmaz

Hoffer goes down in the box under challenge from Christoph Metzelder but there's no danger of a penalty there - despite a clumsy challenge from the tall central defender

Martin Hiden does well to deny Lukas Podolski a clear sight of goal as his body deflects a powerful left-foot shot from 18 yards away from goal

Frings sends Martin Harnik crashing to the ground and is told to calm down by the Spanish referee - there's no sign of a yellow card yet

Michael Ballack and Torsten Frings are beginning to dictate the tempo in the centre of the pitch and that could be an ominous sign for Austria

Arne Friedrich wins the ball off Emanuel Pogatetz wide on the Germany right but his cross bounces untouched through the six-yard box by either Klose or Gomez

Gomez tries to make amends with a shot from an acute angle which is low and straight at Jurgen Macho who holds with ease

Gomez is guilty of the miss of the tournament as a Miroslav Klose ball through the six-yard box bobbles up and strikes his shin before ballooning into the air and being cleared off the line - that was harder to miss than score!

Martin Stranzl comes to the rescue at the other end as he slides in to dispossess Mario Gomez and end a swift German break which threatened to open up the defence

Jens Lehmann has to rush out of his goal to clear the ball ahead of the breaking Erwin Hoffer

Germany are playing keep ball in these opening moments and the home fans' whistles highlight the hostile atmosphere
