| Match summary |
| Germany were left struggling to qualify from Group D after Latvia earned a deserved draw in Porto. It could have been even better for the Latvians, but Maris Verpakovskis had two good penalty appeals turned down. Striker Verpakovskis also produced the highlight of the match with a scorching run in the first half, but his shot was saved by Oliver Kahn. Germany's Miroslav Klose missed the best chance of the game, but headed way off target in injury time. The draw at the Estadio do Bessa gave Latvia their first ever tournament point. |
