Bracket{{2006 FIFA World Cup knockout stage bracket}}Round of 16Germany vs SwedenGermany progressed thanks to two goals from Lukas Podolski inside the opening 12 minutes. His first was in the fourth minute; German captain Michael Ballack sent a pass to Miroslav Klose, who was tackled by goalkeeper Andreas Isaksson, only for an onrushing Podolski to turn the ball in.[1] Eight minutes later, a pass from Klose found Podolski, who scored his second goal.[2] On 35 minutes, Teddy Lučić received a second yellow card for a foul on Klose.[3] In the 52nd minute, Henrik Larsson won a penalty for Sweden when he was challenged by Christoph Metzelder, only for Larsson himself to shoot the ball over the crossbar.[4] Afterwards, Germany held out for a 2–0 win. {{football box |date=24 June 2006 |time=17:00 |team1={{fb-rt|GER}} |score=2–0 |report=[https://www.fifa.com/tournaments/archive/worldcup/germany2006/matches/round=97410200/match=97410049/index.html Report] |team2={{fb|SWE}} |goals1= |goals2= |stadium=FIFA WM-Stadion München, Munich |attendance=66,000 |referee=Carlos Eugênio Simon (Brazil) }}{{Football kit | pattern_la = _adidasstripesonwhite | pattern_b = _DFB_06h | pattern_ra = _adidasonwhite2006 | pattern_sh = _DFB_06h | pattern_so = _color_3_stripes_black | leftarm = 000000 | body = FFFFFF | rightarm = 000000 | shorts = 000000 | socks = FFFFFF | title = Germany }} | {{Football kit | pattern_la = _sweh06 | pattern_b = _sweh06 | pattern_ra = _sweh06 | pattern_sh = _sweh06 | pattern_so = | leftarm = FCD20E | body = FCD20E | rightarm = FCD20E | shorts = 004FA3 | socks = FCD20E | title = Sweden }} |
