Germany maintained their 100% start to the UEFA Euro 2020 Qualifiers with a 2-0 away victory at Barysaw, Belarus thanks to goals from Manchester City winger Leroy Sane and Borussia Dortmund forward Marco Reus.

Joshua Kimmich found Leroy Sane with a neat through ball in the 12th minute and the lightning quick 23-year-old swung a curler in to left hand far post beyond the reach of Belarus keeper Alyaksandr Hutar.

After looking threatening throughout the game, Reus was rewarded with a goal in the 62nd minute, running onto a neat cutback from Matthias Ginter, controlling the ball with a fanstastic touch and finishing with precision. 30-year-old Reus has always been unlucky with his German career having famously missed out on being part of the 2014 World Cup winning Die Mannschaft squad due to injury.

With this win, Germany stands at 2nd place in Group C with 6 points from 2 games, with a game in hand with respect to leaders Northern Ireland who have 9 points from 3 game.
