#3 Germany show what Champions are made of
The reigning World Champions are a team which is greater than the sum of its parts, but when each part is already top quality, the result is something else.

A squad full of talented players who have the spirit of basically every German football team ever. The resilience and efficiency of the Germans is unparalleled. If you want to learn how to play football, ask the Brazilians. If you want to learn how to win, you ask the Germans.
The Confederations Cup Winners found themselves behind through Rodrigo's strike but retaliated with the will and might of Champions and their captain lead from the front. A wonder strike from Thomas Muller from just outside the box was just what the doctor ordered. And Muller with the precision of a surgeon, sliced the Spain defence apart.
The shot found the top corner beyond the despairing dive of David de Gea. And the Champions were level. They had deservedly found a way back into the game having reacted well after going behind. But that's what Champions do - they always find a way.
