Japan touches Germany as world championship outdoor dogs keep barking

 

DOHA, Qatar - Manuel Neuer can't believe it's another World Cup flop after Germany's 2-1 defeat and Japan's incredible comeback All I could do was shake my head.                                                    

After a first half in which the Germans felt comfortable, Ilkay Gundogan's penalty gave them a one-goal lead.

For the second straight tournament, the German failed to serve as the favorite in the first game. Four years ago, Hirving "Chucky" Lozano helped Mexico to his stunning 1-0 win in Moscow.

This was an even bigger shock as Japan entered the tournament in his 24th place as his second-best team in the Asian Federation. However, Samurai Blue's progress in recent years has been spectacular, and in 2018 they were forced to make a big comeback to prevent Belgium from reaching the quarterfinals.

On Wednesday, Germany took the lead after an interesting 33-minute run. David Raum, who caused trouble all night with his pace and tricks, charged into the box and was knocked down by Japanese goalkeeper Shuichi Gonda.

The Germans appeared to be advancing steadily as Gundogan calmly stepped out of the scene. That feeling intensified when both Joshua Kimmich and Jamal Musiara got threatening chances.

Set pieces were an ongoing issue as Germany tried to take advantage of their height. However, a second goal proved disappointing and Germany ultimately paid the price for failing to capitalize on their early advantage. With 20 minutes remaining, Gonda managed a dramatic series of three consecutive saves from Jonas Hoffmann and Serge Gnabry. It helped me gain a foothold the first time. Tsuchian put in an impressive performance in the 75th minute as Japan saw another shock opportunity to move forward after Argentina's defeat by Saudi Arabia the day before. Asano's strike was beautiful. He ran long on his pass, hitting defenders and slamming the ball past the frantic goalkeeper Neuer on his side. The result, which received great cheers in Japan, was a possible upset in Group E, initially regarded as one of the most predictable of the World Cup, as Germany and Spain dominated Japan and South Korea. created sexuality. Instead, the underdogs of the tournament continued to yell.
