In a friendly match against Ukraine, Germany only won the tie 3-3 in the last minute. An anniversary international that is quickly forgotten for the Germans, who still have plenty of work to do against the European Championships at home.
Germany – Ukraine 3-3
6′ Folkrog 1-0
19′ Tsygankov 1-1
23′ Rudiger (Owside Goal) 1-2
56′ Tsygankov 1-3
83′ Havertz 2-3
90 + 1 ‘Kimmich (pen) 3-3
Germany will host the European Football Championship next year and will have to prepare with international training matches.
The match against Ukraine was the 1,000th international match for the Germans, marking their anniversary. But there wasn’t much to celebrate.
With 10 minutes left, Germany was still 1-3 in debt. The crowd at the Weserstadion in Bremen expressed their displeasure with the whistle parties after the break.
Kai Havertz responded with a goal to connect. Joshua Kimmich put the 3-3 tie on the board with a penalty kick in overtime. Small consolation.
In March, the Germans had already lost a friendly match against the Red Devils in Cologne (2-3). A year before the European Championships in their country, confidence is very low.
The war in Ukraine also dominated the friendly match. When players from both countries entered the field, they were accompanied by children who had come from Ukraine.
In addition, proceeds from the match went to war-torn Ukraine.
