Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Germany 1, England 5 commemorates the game that elevated coach Sven-Goran Eriksson to his (albeit temporary) status as greatest living man in England, after an unforeseen and unforgettable pummelling of the team England love to hate. September 1, 2001, will linger long in the memory as the day England travelled to Munich for a vital World Cup qualifier against Germany and quickly went one-down in time-honoured tradition.

Lest we forget, only a few months previously Germany had soiled the last ever international at Wembley with a victory that sent little Kevin Keegan into a spiral of self-loathing; they boasted a 28-year unbeaten home record; and the hosts had already booked alternative matches on the World Cup play-off dates that this 5-1 result hilariously forced them to change.

You'll know the story--a Michael Owen hat-trick, plus superb strikes from Steven Gerrard and Emile Heskey, as the Germans look on aghast--but the magic of that late summer evening is worth wallowing in again. The pictures and commentary are from the BBC--Motson and Brooking (with no option to turn them off, unfortunately)--and you get the full 90-minutes, all the relevant replays you could wish for, plus the pre-match build-up and some post-match reaction interviews from the night itself. This is a cherished snapshot of a sporting moment when anything seemed possible for England.

On the DVD: Germany 1, England 5 on disc comes with a reasonable selection of extras--though the lack of alternative commentaries cuts down on the repeat-viewing appeal. "Player Cams" are not alternative takes of the match but mini-montages of action featuring Beckham, Owen, Gerrard, Heskey and Scholes. "Goal Frenzy" offers extended montages of the goals themselves. "U21 Highlights" are extended highlights of the corresponding U21 qualifier. --Alex Hankin

Synopsis
All of the classic world cup match plus exclusive match build-up and interviews.

5.0 out of 5 stars Enjoyment Overdrive, 23 Oct 2001
By A Customer
This video brings back that wonderful memory of the night we smashed the Germans by five goals to one. It brings back that wonderful night watching the match with my German friend (who left the room in disgust after Owen's hat-trick). I've watched it several times already and I don't think I'll ever get tired of watching this glorious video.

5.0 out of 5 stars It wasn't a dream after all!, 22 Sep 2001
By rudedog2uk@yahoo.co.uk (Peterborough, England) - See all my reviews
There isn't a football fan in the country that hasn't got every detail of this awe inspiring game still etched in the back of his mind. What a game, what a night, what a result. You will never get tired of watching this game and i challenge anyone who can prevent the hairs on the back of their neck from standing on end as you relive every amazing moment from this game. The greatest England victory since '66, some might say better, one things for sure, Saturday 1st September 2001, the night we turned over the germans on their own soil, truly was one wild night! A must for any England fan.

5.0 out of 5 stars 90 minutes straight from heaven, 26 Jun 2004
By Adam Foster (Aberdeen, Scotland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Germany 1 England 5 [2001] (DVD)
Watching this never fails to cheer me up. There are few things better than beating the Germans, and to do it in Germany in the manner we did was fantastic. From Owens sensational hat trick to Stevie Gerrard's wonder goal on the stroke of half time this match will live on in the memories of us English fans forever. Jon Motson and Trevor Brooking provide commentary and there are post match reactions from the players. Player cams examine the performances of some the England players. There are even highlights of the U21 game (which we won 2-1). So next time we go out on penalties to Germany, draw with Scotland, or lose to the Argies, just whip out your copy of Eng 5 Ger 1 and be proud of the three lions on your shirt.
