Group J
Germany – Romania 2-1
His name is a promise and talent is evident. The Romanian national player Ianis Hagi (22) amazes the Germans in Hamburg – quite the son of Gheorghe, the Carpathian Maradona of the 90s. Hagi junior fools the German defense, especially Antonio Rüdiger, whom he tunnels – 1-0 for the Romanians after nine minutes. The Germans flourished the first defeat in the third game under the reformer Hansi Flick. And it would have its logic: For a long time the Romanians defended with strict discipline, but also wisely. And the Germans can think of surprisingly little. But then, shortly after the break, Serge Gnabry caught a small gap in the Romanian bulwark and pulled off dry to 1-1. And around ten minutes before the end, Joker Thomas Müller instinctively dusts off to 2-1. After all, the Bayern aces won’t let their ex-trainer Flick down.
The goals: 9. Hagi 0: 1, 52. Gnabry 1: 1, 81. Müller 2: 1.

The Liechtensteiners can only keep up against North Macedonia for half the time before they are run over. After the change of sides, Alioski also joins the scorers list, a Swiss. He may take a penalty and sinks it into the mesh.
