Germany and Spain draw 1-1, Morocco and Croatia celebrate

Germany remains in the World Cup race: A 1-1 draw against Spain means the DFB team can still make it to the last 16 under its own steam. The goal for Germany was scored by wild card Niclas Füllkrug of Werder Bremen in the 83rd minute. Alvaro Morata had given the Spaniards the lead in the 62nd minute.

Shortly before the break, the German team rejoiced over the supposed lead. However, before his powerful header, defender Antonio Rüdiger was clearly offside – as the video review revealed.

Germany must now win against Costa Rica on Thursday to reach the last 16. The outcome of Spain’s match against Japan is also important.

The surprises at the FIFA World Cup continue: In the first match of Group F, Morocco shocked the number two of the FIFA World Ranking, Belgium, with two goals by two substitutes. The “Red Devils” now have to win against Croatia or face early elimination from the tournament.

Speaking of Croatia, the 2018 finalists kept an energetic Canada at bay, scoring four goals. But Canada still managed to make history. It took just 68 seconds for Alphonso Davies to score Canada’s first goal at a World Cup.
