Live comments

  • 0' - In just a few seconds Khalifa International Stadium will turn into a battlefield for Germany and Japan.
  • 5' - Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
  • 10' - While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Antonio Rudiger made 331 appearances and scored 15 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 15' - It looks like no one’s ball. Germany is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 20' - Ilkay Gundogan has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 39 appearances with only 1 goals this season.
  • 25' - The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Wataru Endo suffering a number of foals already.
  • 30' - Supporters expect more eagerness from David Raum, as he is very good at scoring at Khalifa International Stadium with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 33' - Germany is taking the lead after the goal scored by Ilkay Gundogan on 33.
  • 38' - It’s high time Hajime Moriyasu made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 43' - The travelling Japan supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 46' - Time for substitution for Japan. Takefusa Kubo is replaced by Takehiro Tomiyasu.
  • 49' - What a strike from Kai Havertz! The score is 2-0.
  • 54' - Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 54 minutes.
  • 57' - The supporters are chanting for Kaoru Mitoma. He replaces Yuto Nagatomo on 57 minute.
  • 62' - While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 1 times this season with Japan winning 100% of all matches.
  • 67' - The supporters are chanting for Jonas Hofmann. He replaces Thomas Muller on 67 minute.
  • 71' - Another change for Japan made on 71 minute. Ao Tanaka leaves to be changed by Ritsu Doan.
  • 72' - Another substitution for Japan to replace Ao Tanaka by Ritsu Doan on 72 minute.
  • 74' - Another change for Japan made on 74 minute. Hiroki Sakai leaves to be changed by Takumi Minamino.
  • 75' - What a strike from Ritsu Doan! The score is 2-1.
  • 76' - Goal! Ritsu Doan scores his 36 goal in 264 matches.
  • 79' - It is a substitution in Germany team. Kai Havertz is replaced by Niclas Fullkrug on 79 minute.
  • 83' - Sensational shot from Takuma Asano. Japan is back in the lead.
  • 88' - Japan looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker Ritsu Doan scoring 2 goals.
  • 90' - Another change for Germany made on 90 minute. Serge Gnabry leaves to be changed by Youssoufa Moukoko.
  • The referee blows the final whistle. Sensational lose for Germany.
