Live comments

  • 0' - KICK OFF: Germany gets underway.
  • 5' - 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.
  • 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' - 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.
  • 20' - It looks surprising Germany does not make any changes. Thomas Muller has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 25' - We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 30' - David Raum has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 33' - Goal! Ilkay Gundogan scores his 56 goal in 357 matches.
  • 38' - Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 38 minutes.
  • 43' - The travelling Japan supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 46' - Time for substitution for Japan. Takefusa Kubo is replaced by Takehiro Tomiyasu.
  • 49' - Goal! Kai Havertz scores his 85 goal in 458 matches.
  • 54' - Japan looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker Ritsu Doan scoring 2 goals.
  • 57' - Japan manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Kaoru Mitoma is hanging Yuto Nagatomo on the field on 57 minute.
  • 62' - 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 Yuto Nagatomo suffering a number of foals already.
  • 67' - Another substitution for Germany to replace Thomas Muller by Jonas Hofmann on 67 minute.
  • 71' - The Japan manager makes a substitution. Ao Tanaka departs to be replaced by Ritsu Doan.
  • 72' - Japan manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Ritsu Doan is hanging Ao Tanaka on the field on 72 minute.
  • 74' - It is a substitution in Japan team. Hiroki Sakai is replaced by Takumi Minamino on 74 minute.
  • 75' - What a strike from Ritsu Doan! The score is 2-1.
  • 76' - Ritsu Doan with the second goal in the match!
  • 79' - Another change for Germany made on 79 minute. Kai Havertz leaves to be changed by Niclas Fullkrug.
  • 83' - Sensational shot from Takuma Asano. Japan is back in the lead.
  • 88' - It looks like no one’s ball. Germany is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 90' - Germany manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Youssoufa Moukoko is hanging Serge Gnabry on the field on 90 minute.
  • Full Time. Japan beats Germany
