I’ve a heard a few times on Twitter that the manager of the German football team, Joachim Loew, looks a bit like Professor Brian Cox, particle physicist and documentary maker extraordinaire. I’ve wedged them together for the hell of it.
Surprisingly, I found getting two pictures of these men making the same expression to be almost as difficult as squaring the circle. Brian Cox is nearly always grinning from ear to ear like a cheeky schoolboy, whilst Joachim Loew invariably has the stern face of the stereotypically professional efficient German.
Maybe Loew will have a smile on his face come Sunday?


Or maybe not…
