It doesn't get closer than that. With his injured quad, Forlan hit the crossbar with the free kick from right outside the box. It was perfectly placed over the German wall and Butt's hand but it couldn't get low enough to sneak under the bar.
And that was the last play of the game as the final whistle sounded with Germany winning 3-2. One can only hope tomorrow's final will be half as entertaining as this match was. Some great play on both sides in sloppy conditions.
