Alemania 2:1 Costa de Marfil — Informe del Partido

Gary RedknappFootball AnalystINFORME DEL PARTIDO

Deniz Undav scored twice, including a stoppage-time winner, as Germany came from behind to beat Ivory Coast 2-1 in a World Cup group-stage match that was far tighter than the scoreline suggests. The result keeps Germany's campaign alive, though they were pushed hard by a disciplined and dangerous Ivory Coast side.

Ivory Coast took a deserved lead in the 30th minute when Franck Kessié fired home from close range after a corner wasn't cleared. Germany struggled to find rhythm until the 68th minute, when Nadiem Amiri's precise cross was met by Deniz Undav to level the scores. With the game heading for a draw, Undav struck again in the 90th minute, turning in Felix Nmecha's low centre to snatch all three points.

Germany did not deserve the win on balance of play; Ivory Coast were the better side for long spells, particularly in the second half, and will feel aggrieved to have left with nothing. CheckLive's model clearly favoured Germany and the result confirmed that prediction, though the live signals backed Germany throughout and were ultimately rewarded, even if the performance was unconvincing. No next fixture is scheduled.
