Live comments

  • 0' - KICK OFF: Germany gets underway.
  • 5' - Daizen Maeda has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 2 goals this season.
  • 10' - 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.
  • 15' - It looks surprising Japan does not make any changes. Ilkay Gundogan has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 20' - Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 20 minutes.
  • 25' - The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Japan that had 79 games and scored 18 goals.
  • 30' - Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Germany needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 33' - Ilkay Gundogan puts Germany on the lead.
  • 38' - It’s high time Hansi Flick made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 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.
  • 46' - The Japan manager makes a substitution. Takefusa Kubo departs to be replaced by Takehiro Tomiyasu.
  • 49' - GOAL! Kai Havertz scores on 45. Assisted by Serge Gnabry
  • 54' - While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Takefusa Kubo made 190 appearances and scored 30 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 57' - Another change for Japan made on 57 minute. Yuto Nagatomo leaves to be changed by Kaoru Mitoma.
  • 62' - It looks like no one’s ball. Japan is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 67' - The supporters are chanting for Jonas Hofmann. He replaces Thomas Muller on 67 minute.
  • 71' - Ritsu Doan is replacing Ao Tanaka for the Japan side.
  • 72' - The whistle greets Ao Tanaka as he departs to be replaced by Ritsu Doan.
  • 74' - Japan manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Takumi Minamino is hanging Hiroki Sakai on the field on 74 minute.
  • 75' - What a strike from Ritsu Doan! The score is 2-1.
  • 76' - What an equalizer from Ritsu Doan!
  • 79' - The whistle greets Kai Havertz as he departs to be replaced by Niclas Fullkrug.
  • 83' - What a strike from Takuma Asano! The score is 2-3.
  • 88' - Supporters expect more eagerness from Jamal Musiala, as he is very good at scoring at Khalifa International Stadium with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 90' - It is a substitution in Germany team. Serge Gnabry is replaced by Youssoufa Moukoko on 90 minute.
