Before the tournament started, Kerem Demirbay was infamous for making a sexist comment to female referee Bibiana Steinhaus. But a stunner against Cameroon on his full international debut did help him enhance his image in the German media.

In the first half, which finished goalless, Germany wasn't able to get into the groove as Cameroon kept on making unsuccessful quick-paced attacks into the final third. But just minutes into the second half, Demirbay got involved into a one-two with Draxler. The German captain skilfully held the ball in between two opposition players and delicately passed it back to Demirbay with a delightful nutmeg.

The Hoffenheim midfielder did the rest by hitting a powerful right-footed shot just outside the box to launch the ball into the top right corner.
