Germany 0:1 Mexico
Read Time:1 Minute, 46 Second
3 min CHANCE! Now Germany go close! Kimmich plays an outstanding pass through to Werner who is clear of the Mexico defence. However, from an acute angle, the forward sends his effort wide of the far post.
14 min CHANCE! Another opening for Mexico. A free kick is whipped in from the right-hand side and Moreno’s header is heading towards the far corner. However, it lacks pace and Neuer makes a fairly routine save.
20 min CHANCE! Both defences are so open! A ball is lofted over to Werner and although the forward has to turn backwards and shoot on the turn, he should do better rather than scuffing an effort at Ochoa.
18 min The Hernandez of old would surely have scored this. The forward was played in and only had Neuer to beat, but the 30-year-old could not get the ball out of his feet and the chance was lost.
35 min GOAL! Germany 0-1 Mexico (Hirving Lozano)
55 min CHANCE! Better from Germany as Draxler is found in some space on the left-hand side of the penalty area but the Paris Saint-Germain winger’s shot is deflected wide of the near post.
68 min CHANCE! The effort was deflected and from the resulting corner, Werner volleyed over the crossbar from no more than eight yards. It feels like Mexico are starting to fade.
67 min CHANCE! Germany are getting closer. A cross from the right somehow finds its way to Draxler at the back post but the winger curls over the crossbar from around 16 yards out.
66 min SUBSTITUTION! A second change for Mexico sees new Wolverhampton Wanderers signing Jimenez come on for Lozano.
65 min CHANCE! Kimmich almost scores a worldie of an over-head kick! Boateng’s cross lacked flight but Kimmich improvised to send an effort from 12 yards marginally off target.
88 min CHANCE! Was that the moment? Another ball comes in from the right and although Gomez meets the cross, the substitute can only head over the bar from 10 yards
