World Cup: Match Day 2 Review

2022 1388 16408 001 c4 62 - World Cup: Match Day 2 Review - Germany 4 – 1 Chile; ranked 17th in the world, Chile are the lowest placed team at the World Cup. Before the start of this match the coach, Sergio Vigil, stated his ambition that his side would be competitive throughout this tournament, hoping to surprise, perhaps, even the most positive of fans. It will be a tough journey, if that’s going to happen, as they have been drawn into a first round group that will be difficult to navigate. Group A also includes the World Cup finalist from 2018, co-hosts the Netherlands and silver medalists from London, Ireland. Their Germans opponents haven’t medaled for a while, but have won this event as a West German team and are currently ranked sixth in the world.  Chile were well disciplined, forcing the Central Europeans to work hard to find space in the circle. They even got a goal themselves from a well worked short corner, but found it too much to secure a win themselves, running out losers by three a three goal margin.
