The outcome of this Group D clash was never in doubt from the moment Miroslav Klose put Germany ahead after just five minutes. Online betting shop SportsBetting.com has Germany at 11 to 2 betting odds to win Euro 2008.Wales suffered from the loss of their skipper Craig Bellamy - due to his baby daughter's illness - but they were never really in this match and allowed Klose a free header for the second on the hour, taking his tally for his country to 35 in 70 internationals. Meanwhile,Slovakia's Marek Cech grabbed an injury-time equaliser to deny the Republic of Ireland a precious Euro 2008 qualifying victory in heartbreaking fashion in the 2-2 draw in Bratislava. Ireland looked to be set for victory thanks to Kevin Doyle's stunning left-foot strike from 30 yards in the 57th minute. Earlier, Stephen Ireland had given the visitors a seventh minute lead only for Maros Klimpl to get the first Slovak equaliser eight minutes before the break.
