Events

Match Events

  • 0' Three points are at stake. Ecuador host Germany — let the battle begin!
  • 2' A goal from the Germany international Leroy Sane! He fires home on 2 to make it 0-1!
  • 7' The energy levels are beginning to show. Julian Nagelsmann might look to freshen things up shortly.
  • 9' GOAL! Nilson Angulo scores on 9.
  • 14' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both Ecuador and Germany are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
  • 19' Germany is showing some good football. However, Germany are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 24' With 6 assists to his name this season, Florian Wirtz is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Germany.
  • 29' Germany fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
  • 34' It looks like no one’s ball. Germany is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 39' Ecuador looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker Nilson Angulo scoring 1 goals.
  • 43' The referee does not hesitate — a card for Piero Hincapie on 43 minutes.
  • 44' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the card for Aleksandar Pavlovic.
  • 46' Angelo Stiller is ready to make an impact after coming on for Aleksandar Pavlovic at the 46 minute mark.
  • 50' Controversy at the stadium! Alan Franco argues furiously but the card stands.
  • 55' Aleksandar Pavlovic is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Ecuador so far.
  • 60' Malick Thiaw is replacing Joshua Kimmich for the Germany side.
  • 64' It is a substitution in Ecuador team. Alan Franco is replaced by Angelo Preciado on 64 minute.
  • 69' Jamal Musiala has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 71' The supporters are chanting for Pervis Estupinan. He replaces Piero Hincapie on 71 minute.
  • 73' The whistle greets Florian Wirtz as he departs to be replaced by Pascal Gross.
  • 78' Magnificent from Gonzalo Plata! That is 15 goals in 518 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
  • 83' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Jonathan Tah made 166 appearances and scored 18 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 85' The crowd applauds Nilson Angulo as he leaves the pitch. Jordy Caicedo steps in for Ecuador.
  • 89' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the card for Gonzalo Plata.
  • Both sets of fans can go home satisfied — a 2-1 draw is a fair result on the day.
