Full time: It was a tightly contested game that truly burst to life in the second half. Considering the balance of play, a draw seems to be a fair result. Gnabry was Germany's most direct attacking threat in the game. The Arsenal man put on a great display, lacking only the final ball. For the Mexicans, Hirving Lozano was their greatest asset in the game, causing problems for the German defence with his pace. Both managers will be reasonably pleased with what they saw from their teams tonight, as they take a point each from the opening fixture of group C.


...
90+3'  The ref blows the final whistle, bringing the game to an end.

...
90+ 2'  Suddenly the game seems calm now. Maybe both teams would be satisfied with a draw in this opening fixture.


...
90+1'  The fourth official indicates 3 minutes added time.

...
90'  Play looks a little scrappy now, as both teams try deperately to score the winner.

...
89'  Max Meyer makes way for Max Christiansen.

...
88'  Torres puts a nice ball into the box and finds Bueno, who heads it wide.

...
88'  Sven Bender and Guzman get into a bit of pushing and pulling, but both players manage to keep a cool head.

...
87'  Germany are looking to attack, but the Mexicans have all but two players in their own half.

...
83'  A series of substitutions were made. Mexico bring on a pair of fresh legs, while the Germans bring on two players from the bench.

...
79'  Goal! Ginter scores the equaliser for Germany. Meyer whipped the ball in from a corner, and Ginter rose above everybody else to head the ball past the helpless keeper. 2-2. What a game!

...
78'  Gnabry makes a beautiful run in the box with the ball, leaving the defenders behind him looking incompetent. But he finishes the move with another tame shot.

...
...
74'  Horn makes a brilliant save to deny another Mexican goal. The striker found himself in a shocking amount of space in the box and fired a fierce shot at the keeper, who was up to it.

...
73'  Substitution for Mexico. Peralta makes way for Torres.

...
72'  Germany are displaying some slick passing in the opposition half, but are having some difficulty breaking down the defence.

...
70'  Gnabry takes another pop at goal from the left side, but it comes back off the post. He looks like the most obvious threat to the Mexicans, as he continuously makes a nuisance of himelf in their final third.

...
68'  There's a scramble in front of the Mexican goal as the Germans pass the ball around it, but nothing of note came of it.

...
...
64'  Three goals in quick succession changed the tone of the game. There's more aggression and passion now. It's an open game, and the remaining half hour promises to be entertaining.

...
61'  Another goal for Mexico! Pizarro scores. Peralta headed a well hit cross onto the crossbar. The ball fell kindly for Pizarro, who simply had to tap it in for the goal. Mexico lead again.

...
60'  Germany put the ball in the back of the net agin, but the goal is disallowed because of a handball by Selke.

...
58'  Goal for Germany! Gnabry finally finds the back of the net with an emphatically hit side-foot shot to beat the keeper and put the ball in the bottom right corner.
