Birthday boy Ozil scores but limps off as Schurrle's hat-trick helps Germany finish unbeaten with win over Sweden.

Arsenal's Mesut Ozil celebrated his 25th birthday with a goal in Germany's entertaining 5-3 win over Sweden but hobbled off with less than 10 minutes to play.
The midfielder, who has been an instant hit since arriving at the Emirates from Real Madrid in the summer, scored his eighth goal in World Cup qualification on 44 minutes.
But his special night was ruined shortly before full-time when he was forced off with what appeared to be an ankle injury.
