All 5 of Japan's subs have been better than the starters funnily. Theyve had so man y chances in the second half

Germany were (and maybe still are) among my favourites. No logic to that but I felt because they aren't as great as German sides in the past people might forget/under-estimate them but this shows no big name teams will be able to sit on one-goal leads any more. the "smaller" teams aren't so minnow-y any more (other than those appearing at their first WC)

Everyone after Qatar's loss to Ecuador: Asian teams are all rubbish

Saudi Arabia and Japan: And I took that personally!

Showing zero reasons why they should be anybodys favourite.

At this rate they could be out of the competition next match :lol:

Basically if Germany loses here, highly likely that one of Spain or Germany don't go through. Crazy

Why are they playing so scared? They have the players to play on the front foot.
They weren't scared before the equalizer. I think even in the first half it was pretty obvious how shit that defense is. They needed to score 2 or 3 goals in that great phase. Was always clear to me that they would concede some as well. As I said before, screw xG and the likes.

If it stays like this Germany have one hell of a fight to stay in the World Cup! Loss against Spain means goodbye.

Shocking defending from Sule to play him onside. But hilarious nonetheless.

Some bizarre selections from Germany. Seems very surprising to not have Goretzka start, and when the subs were made I was amazed to not see Sane come on. Never heard of this Fullkrug fella. But to see Sane and Moukoko stay on the bench seems odd.
