Live comments

  • 0' - It’s Showtime! The match between Germany and Japan is underway.
  • 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. Ritsu Doan made 264 appearances and scored 36 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 15' - Supporters expect more eagerness from Joshua Kimmich, as he is very good at scoring at Khalifa International Stadium with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 20' - We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 25' - Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 30' - It’s high time Hansi Flick made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 33' - GOAL! Ilkay Gundogan scores on 33.
  • 38' - Germany 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.
  • 43' - 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 Shuichi Gonda suffering a number of foals already.
  • 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' - It looks surprising Germany does not make any changes. Wataru Endo has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 57' - The Japan manager makes a substitution. Yuto Nagatomo departs to be replaced by Kaoru Mitoma.
  • 62' - The travelling Japan supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
