Good news for Scotland: Germany is fielding almost all of their

relative to their previous match. Rudiger over Schlotterbeck forced by
the Schlotterbeck injury)

Very early goal for Germany, but VAR should have call it back, as Vite
was kicked in the face during the build up.

Tchau!

One single goal by Ecuador should go a long way into qualifying them as

Yes, guaranteed qualification. They would be already ahead of Scotland
and Korea (3 pts), Bosnia (4 points and -1 GD), and Senegal/Iraq can't
get to more than 3 points.

And curiously, although the draw is obviously not good for them, it
doesn't definitely eliminates them. They would still be hoping for the following results (all of them needed):
- Uruguay losing by 2+;
- Iran losing by 2+;
- Congo drawing 0-0 and getting a few cards;
- Senegal drawing with Iraq.

I sent that just before the hydration break. As in other matches, the
break killed Ecuador's momentum and allowed Germany to settle down and
at least move back in front in terms of possession, if not in terms of
chances.

Early PK for Germany but VAR should call it back, for at least two
reasons: a foul for Ecuador a bit earlier and also the contact in the
box was softer than the contact that wasn't called in Germany's goal.

And so it is! Foul for Ecuador!

Tchau!

KIT WATCH:


Germany have turned up in what looks like an off colour Argentina away
kit (navy with bright light blue trim and shorts). I mean, yeah, it
looks ok...if you're Argentina! Not if you're Germany!


How can a team get their home kit so right and get their away kit so
wrong? All they had to do was turn up in green and white trim like in
Italia '90. It would have been so easy to get this right. :(
