World Champions, Germany, were knocked out of the ongoing Euro 2016 competition after suffering a whooping 2-0 defeat to France.
Both goals were scored by France's Antoine Griezmann; propelling his team into the finals against Portugal on Sunday.
Griezmann netted at the end of the first half from the penalty spot after a controversial handball decision against Germany's Bastian Schweinsteiger.
Schweinsteiger conceded the penalty as replays showed his arm grazed the ball as he put his arms up while marking Patrice Evra from a corner.
In the second half Griezmann scored again, after a mistake from German Goalkeeper Manuel Neuer handed him an easy tap in.
The 2-0 defeat marked the first time France have beaten Germany in the finals of a competition, since 1958.
