An injury-hit England team played out a 0-0 draw with Germany in a friendly at Wembley on Friday night, the first major game in the UK to have a video assistant referee on hand.
The fancy technology was never used but a plucky, youthful home side did provide a modicum of encouragement for the future after managing to not concede against the World Cup holders.
These were the best jokes from England 0-0 Germany:

England's XI reminds me of our 2nd XI during August.
3 regulars, their kids, someone's brother in law and a couple of blokes from the pub #Village #ENGGER

I've seen better England squads in bloody Soccer Aid. Jonathan Wilkes must be gutted to have missed out. #ENGGER

Worst line-up I've seen at Wembley since that time McFly supported Busted. #ENGGER

Sickening scenes at Wembley as both sets of fans respect the national anthems.
The games gone. #ENGGER— QPR Pensioners club (@QPRPPF) November 10, 2017

I do like ITV football coverage but they do sometimes let the football get in the way of the adverts #ENGGER

Do you ever get the feeling that we think we have a big rivalry with the Germans and they don’t really care? #ENGGER

Phil Jones injured after 10 minutes. Southgate is readying Ben Shephard to replace him. #ENGGER

My cat is more optimistic about England's attacks than I am…but he was only born 14 weeks ago and didn't see Euro 2000, World Cup 2002, Euro 2004, World Cup 2006, the 2008 Euro qualifiers, World Cup 2010, Euro 2012, World Cup 2014 and Euro 2016.
He'll learn. #ENGGER pic.twitter.com/OpcNxoxk8l

Call me mad but I reckon it could end up 5-1 again tonight. We've definitely got the ability and pace to nick a late consolation. #ENGGER

Jordan Pickford and Loftus Cheek have been excellent. The rest of Everton and Palace must be worse than we thought.

If you have watched this game and think that Henderson should still play for England then you are either a Liverpool fan or Mrs Henderson.
