Live comments

  • 0' - We are underway at Khalifa International Stadium. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
  • 5' - Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 10' - It’s high time Hajime Moriyasu made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 15' - Japan is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 20' - 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.
  • 25' - Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 25 minutes.
  • 30' - Daichi Kamada has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 33' - What a strike from Ilkay Gundogan! The score is 1-0.
  • 38' - While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Takumi Minamino made 203 appearances and scored 22 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 43' - Japan started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 43.
  • 46' - The supporters are chanting for Takehiro Tomiyasu. He replaces Takefusa Kubo on 46 minute.
  • 49' - What a strike from Kai Havertz! The score is 2-0.
  • 54' - It looks surprising Germany does not make any changes. Ao Tanaka has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 57' - Another change for Japan made on 57 minute. Yuto Nagatomo leaves to be changed by Kaoru Mitoma.
  • 62' - Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 67' - Jonas Hofmann has so much to prove this time. He replaces Thomas Muller on 67 minute.

  • 72' - Another change for Japan made on 72 minute. Ao Tanaka leaves to be changed by Ritsu Doan.

  • 79' - Niclas Fullkrug is replacing Kai Havertz for the Germany side.
  • 83' - Goal! Takuma Asano scores his 18 goal in 186 matches.
  • 88' - 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.
