However, they often toiled against a robust, hard-working and incredibly dynamic Ivorian side. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But it&#8217;s these sorts of tight encounters where managers really earn their pay, and Julian Nagelsmann did just that here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The introduction of Deniz Undav and Nadiem Amiri in place of Aleksandar Pavlovic and Jamal Musiala on the hour mark raised eyebrows, with two Bayern Munich stars withdrawn for Stuttgart and Mainz players. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, it turned the game on its head, with Undav picking up where he left off against Curacao by making a late run into the box and converting a cross, which Amiri delivered &#8212; both subs combining to level the match just eight minutes after coming on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nagelsmann looked understandably pleased with himself when the ball hit the net, and he was ecstatic in second-half stoppage time as Undav expertly controlled and finished Felix Nmecha&#8217;s fizzed pass to seal all three points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-x wp-block-embed-x\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Deniz Undav is the first player to reach five goal involvements at the 2026 World Cup. <br><br>Three goals, two assists. \u26bd\ufe0f\u26bd\ufe0f\u26bd\ufe0f\ud83c\udd70\ufe0f\ud83c\udd70\ufe0f<a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/hashtag\/FIFAWorldCup?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#FIFAWorldCup<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/ekhKl6tU1q\">https:\/\/t.co\/ekhKl6tU1q<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Squawka (@Squawka) <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Squawka\/status\/2068457125953655102?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 20, 2026<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.x.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Undav has played 56 minutes at this World Cup so far and has used them to deliver three goals and two assists. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Germany are now through to the World Cup knockout rounds for the first time since they won the tournament in 2014.

But if Sangare and his teammates repeat this performance against Curacao, a World Cup knockout debut will be theirs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-mercurial-wirtz-frustrates\">Mercurial Wirtz frustrates<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There is very clearly a world-class player in Florian Wirtz. He proved that at Bayer Leverkusen, and he&#8217;s shown glimpses of it since joining Liverpool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, glimpses are not enough for a player of his calibre and price tag, and on Saturday, he once again dazzled and frustrated in equal measure. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wirtz showed plenty of creative genius, setting up two chances, including one big chance, while he also completed two of his four dribbles and played nine passes into the final third.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But on the other side of the coin, the 23-year-old missed a golden chance just before half-time, while he repeatedly ran down blind alleys and tried to force square pegs through strictly round holes in the Ivorian defence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What&#8217;s more, Wirtz&#8217;s efforts without the ball were, at times, laughable, with the Anfield man being dribbled past a match-high six times and losing 10 of his 15 ground duels. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wirtz is playing like a man on the edge of brilliance at this tournament. However, he&#8217;s still sitting on the wrong side of the genius line if he wants to lead Germany to a deep run.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3><strong>Read more:<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none\">\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/bet\/football-tips\/world-cup-2026-betting-tips-predictions\/\"><strong>World Cup predictions &amp; tips<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/outright-markets\/world-cup-outright-odds\/\"><strong>World Cup outright odds <\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/news\/world-cup-2026-fixtures-results\/\"><b>World Cup fixtures &amp; results<\/b><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/world-cup-2026-betting-offers\/\"><b>World Cup free bets<\/b><\/a><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Germany sealed their place in the World Cup knockout rounds for the first time since 2014 as they came from behind to beat Ivory Coast 2-1 in Toronto on Saturday.
