The stakes
Full time: Germany 2-1 Ivory Coast — a Group E result now baked into the table.
- storylineGermany's redemption arcEmphatic statement: 7-1 demolition of Curaçao (June 14) — their biggest World Cup win since the legendary 7-1 over Brazil in 2014. Havertz brace, Musiala's first WC goal, Wirtz two assists. Top of Group E.
The two sides
GermanyFour-time champs out for redemption
Four-time champions on a redemption tour, built around two 23-year-old prodigies in Wirtz and Musiala, who just put SEVEN past Curaçao. The wounded king might actually be awake.
Ivory CoastThe youngest team here, and rising
The youngest squad at the World Cup, finally breaking a long curse, conceding nothing in qualifying and winning on a 90th-minute super-sub strike — a long-haunted nation daring to believe.
