An incredible second-half performance from Japan sinks the former World Champions. Let Germany dominate the first half and never allowed them back into the game and key substitutions worked to perfection. Absolute Warriors!
Long ball from Endo finds Takuma Asano who beats Neuer on the near post as some terrible defending is displayed by Germany!
It was coming! Wasn't it?! RITSU DOAN SCORES immediately after coming in to play as Asano breaks the German defence with a brilliant link up play with Tomiyasu!
Japan have looked good on counters but they are bit too defensive. Germany have controlled the first half and have a deserving lead at the break, thanks to a penalty from Ilkay Gundogan.
