Live comments

  • 0' - KICK OFF: Germany gets underway.
  • 5' - Japan looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker Ritsu Doan scoring 2 goals.
  • 10' - Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 15' - It looks surprising Germany does not make any changes. Joshua Kimmich has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 20' - 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.
  • 25' - We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 30' - Japan started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 30.
  • 33' - GOAL! Ilkay Gundogan scores on 33.
  • 38' - 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 Kai Havertz suffering a number of foals already.
  • 43' - 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.
  • 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' - Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 57' - Japan manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Kaoru Mitoma is hanging Yuto Nagatomo on the field on 57 minute.
  • 62' - While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Jamal Musiala made 466 appearances and scored 41 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 67' - The Germany manager makes a substitution. Thomas Muller departs to be replaced by Jonas Hofmann.
  • 71' - The Japan manager makes a substitution. Ao Tanaka departs to be replaced by Ritsu Doan.
  • 72' - The whistle greets Ao Tanaka as he departs to be replaced by Ritsu Doan.
  • 74' - The Japan manager makes a substitution. Hiroki Sakai departs to be replaced by Takumi Minamino.
  • 75' - GOAL! Ritsu Doan scores on 75.
  • 76' - Ritsu Doan with the second goal in the match!
  • 79' - Niclas Fullkrug is replacing Kai Havertz for the Germany side.
  • 83' - Sensational shot from Takuma Asano. Japan is back in the lead.
  • 88' - 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.
  • 90' - Another change for Germany made on 90 minute. Serge Gnabry leaves to be changed by Youssoufa Moukoko.
  • Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 1-2.
