Live comments

  • 0' - The match kicks off with home fans waiting with anticipation for Germany to score. At the same time, Japan does not seem to pull back! Let’s get it on!
  • 5' - Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Japan needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 10' - The travelling Japan supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 15' - 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.
  • 20' - Japan seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
  • 25' - It looks like no one’s ball. Japan is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 30' - Japan is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 33' - What a strike from Ilkay Gundogan! The score is 1-0.
  • 38' - It looks surprising Japan does not make any changes. Kai Havertz has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 43' - Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 46' - Takehiro Tomiyasu has so much to prove this time. He replaces Takefusa Kubo on 46 minute.
  • 49' - Goal! Kai Havertz scores his 85 goal in 458 matches.
  • 54' - 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.
  • 57' - Kaoru Mitoma is replacing Yuto Nagatomo for the Japan side.
  • 62' - We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 67' - The supporters are chanting for Jonas Hofmann. He replaces Thomas Muller on 67 minute.
  • 71' - It is a substitution in Japan team. Ao Tanaka is replaced by Ritsu Doan on 71 minute.
  • 72' - Japan manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Ritsu Doan is hanging Ao Tanaka on the field on 72 minute.
  • 74' - Another change for Japan made on 74 minute. Hiroki Sakai leaves to be changed by Takumi Minamino.
  • 75' - GOAL! Ritsu Doan scores on 75.
  • 76' - Ritsu Doan with the second goal in the match!
  • 79' - Time for substitution for Germany. Kai Havertz is replaced by Niclas Fullkrug.
  • 83' - Japan is taking the lead after the goal scored by Takuma Asano on 83.
  • 88' - 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 Maya Yoshida suffering a number of foals already.
  • 90' - Youssoufa Moukoko has so much to prove this time. He replaces Serge Gnabry on 90 minute.
  • The final score is 1-2.
