Second-half underway!

Kamada starts the play as Japan hunts for an equaliser. Germany meanwhile, will look to maintain the momentum

Germany voices out

German players covered their mouths during their team photo prior to their Group E game against Japan, in order to mark their protest on their captain, Manuel Neuer, being denied permission to wear the ‘OneLove’ armband for the Qatar World Cup.

An electric first half come to an end. Japan was dominating from the start but has been slacking after conceding the penalty. Hansi Flick meanwhile will be impressed by his team’s performance towards the end of this half. Will Gundogan’s penalty be enough for Germany to sail through or will the Havertz offside goal prove costly for the World Cup giant?

45+4’

OFFSIDE!! Kai Havertz finds the back of the net and it is given. But the referee points towards the VAR monitor after Japan players protest. The VAR indeed shows that Havertz was offside and the goal is cancelled out

45+3’

Japan is in a position that no other team desires. It is yet to hit a shot on target and it is almost the end of first half

45’

Four added minutes – if you’re wondering why so much injury time is added in Qatar WC? – here is why

45’

Sule links up to Kimmich who then finds Musiala and the Munich man attempts an atrocious shot and it goes well off the target

Germany is peaking right at the end of first half. A long ball from Kimmich comes in and Musiala on the right collects it. He puts in a cross to change the line of play but the Japanese defense steps up

41’

Japan looks constantly troubled. Muller from the left picks Kimmich right outside the box and the latter lets one fly. Although it is off the mark, these are worrying signs for Moriyasu’s side as their defense is getting tested regularly

38’

Looks like that goal has taken a toll on Japan players and the German attack exploits it. Kimmich finds Havertz on the right and the Chelsea player puts in a cross but it’s intercepted. Some breathing space for Japan

36’

Corner for Japan and Kamada takes it. His long ball finds no one and the ball is cleared easily

33’ GOAAALLLLL
GUNDOGAN HELPS GERMANY TAKE THE LEAD AS HE CONVERTS THE PENALTY. Cool as a cucumber. Gonda dives to his left but the ball goals too straight.
32’

PENALTY FOR GERMANY!!! Sloppy work from Gonda. Kimmich from the right put in an inch perfect through ball to find Raumm, the latter turns and is dragged down by Gonda.

Gnabry-Gundogan leads to a dangerous German attack. Gnabry finds Gundogan in the middle and the latter wastes no time and shoots but it is too straightforward and Gonda grabs it.

24’

22’

Corner for Japan and Kamada takes it. He puts in a low ball to find Yoshida who in turn dishes out a cross but nothing comes off it

15’

Sakai is down in agony as a collison with Raum caused some discomfort to him. He’s quickly back on his feet

Attack brewing on the right from Japan as Ito initiates it. He tries to find Kamada but is intercepted by Kimmich
