  • 0' - It’s Showtime! The match between Germany and Japan is underway.
  • 5' - Japan started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 5.
  • 10' - It looks like no one’s ball. Germany is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 15' - Niklas Sule has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 38 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 20' - Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 25' - Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 30' - Japan looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker Ritsu Doan scoring 2 goals.
  • 33' - Ilkay Gundogan puts Germany on the lead.
  • 38' - Supporters expect more eagerness from Maya Yoshida, as he is very good at scoring at Khalifa International Stadium with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 43' - 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.

  • 57' - The whistle greets Yuto Nagatomo as he departs to be replaced by Kaoru Mitoma.
  • 62' - The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Germany that had 162 games and scored 27 goals.
