Füllkrug's shot was struck cleanly, curving toward the bottom right corner with pace. Grill, who had been relatively nervous so far, planted his left foot and dove to his right, getting a strong hand on it. The ball deflected off his palm, spinning toward the far post, but the young keeper had pushed it just wide enough.
"LENNART GRILL!" Derek Rae exclaimed. "What a save! Füllkrug thought he had the opener!"
