This is the first time two strong teams have met in the World Cup in Qatar, Spain vs Germany. These two teams are in Group E with Costa Rica and Japan.
Spain beat Costa Rica 7-0 in the first match, while the German team lost 1-2 in the first match against Japan. Germany’s defeat repeated their history at the 2018 World Cup in Russia. At that time Germany could not score points so they left the group.
The Matador team appeared extraordinary in the first match. Under the tutelage of Luis Enrique, who started coaching since 2019, Spain qualified for the top 4 of the European Cup, 6 wins, 1 draw and 1 defeat in the World Cup preliminary rounds, and won first place in Group B to qualify for the Qatar World Cup finals.
The former Barcelona coach called on many young players to contribute to Spain. Most of the 26 players in the national team are from their own league, only 5 players in the Premier League.
Seven goals for Spain in the first half of the 2022 World Cup were scored by Dani Olmo, Marco Asensio, Ferran Torres (2 goals), Gavi, Carlos Soler and Álvaro Morata.
On the other hand, Germany is one of the strongest teams in the world. In the 2002 Cup, Germany lost to Brazil in the final, in 2006 Germany lost in the semifinals to Italy, at the 2010 World Cup, Germany lost in the final to Spain, but in 2014 it was Germany’s turn to beat Argentina in the final.
But after that, at the 2018 World Cup, Germany did not qualify from the group stage. And now at the 2022 World Cup, Germany has yet to get any points because they were defeated by Japan, and have the chance of not qualifying for the knockout phase if they lose to Spain in the second match tonight.
