(Reuters) – Highlights of Sunday’s second Group D game in the 2010 World Cup finals which saw Germany beat Australia 4-0 at the Moses Mabhida Stadium. 4 – Germany fullback Philipp Lahm blocks the ball in front of goal to deny Australia midfielder Richard Garcia whose right-foot shot from 12 meters is set up by Tim Cahill’s header. 7 – Miroslav Klose breaks clear for Germany but shoots straight at goalkeeper Mark Schwarzer and Australia eventually manage to scramble the ball clear. 8 – GERMANY 1 AUSTRALIA 0 – Striker Lukas Podolski opens the scoring with a rising left-foot drive from 10 meters that Schwarzer gets a hand to but cannot keep out after Thomas Mueller, who looks offside, cuts the ball back across the area.
