The German national team reached the final of the World Cup for the 17th time in a row. The road to Qatar was very easy, while the wards of Hansi Flick got nine wins in ten games and lost only once. This result was the best in Europe. It is impossible not to note the indicators of the quality of the attack, which differed 36 times. Moreover, the Bundestim conceded only four times, which indicates that the German squad is balanced and 100 percent charged after arriving at the tournament. In addition, over the past four years the DFB-Team has not been able to reach the quarter-finals of the 2018 World Cup in Russia and EURO 2020, which will certainly only add to its motivation. Recall that in 2018 South Korea dealt a fatal blow to the German national team, which does not give reason to take today’s opponent lightly. On November 16, today’s nominal hosts modestly defeated the Oman national team (1:0). Muller, Rudriger and Fullkrug, who has coronavirus, will not be able to play today.
The Japanese national team qualified for the World Cup for the seventh time. The Samurai Blues conceded just six goals in 18 qualifying matches, comfortably clearing Australia and automatically securing a spot in Qatar. The warm-up was unsuccessful, in which the wards of Hajime Moriyasu could not cope with the Canadian team, having conceded the decisive goal already in the 96th minute (1:2). Promotion to the playoffs will be a difficult task for the representatives of the Land of the Rising Sun, given that the winner of the 2014 World Cup and the 2010 World Cup is in the quartet with them. It is impossible not to remember that at the World Cup in Russia, the Blues made it to the playoffs at the expense of Senegal, which had more yellow cards, which was the first and only case in the history of the Mundials. Endo, who has a concussion, will not be able to play today. More accurate football prediction can be obtained from the link provided.
