Germany vs. South Korea World Cup 2018

Germany (1-0-1, 3 points) vs. South Korea (0-0-2, 0 points)

Group F, Kazan Arena, Kazan

Defending champion Germany got new life with Saturday’s exhilarating win over Sweden, but its work is far from over and it goes into its group-stage finale against South Korea perhaps a bit shorthanded. Defender Jerome Boateng will miss the game while serving a red-card suspension over his antics in the Sweden game while Sebastian Rudy, a defensive-minded midfielder, seems likely to miss the match after suffering a broken nose that required surgery. Mats Hummels, Rudy’s Bayern Munich teammate, seems likely to play after missing the Sweden game with a neck injury, however.
