The Brazilian city of El Salvador was honored to host the next match of the World Cup. At the Fonta Nova stadium, in the presence of 51,000 spectators, the German national team played against the Portuguese team. These national teams represent Group G at the World Cup.
The game began according to the scenario of the German national team. The Germans had more possession of the ball, tried to attack dangerously. It was striking that the saturated middle of the field of the Portuguese failed over and over again. The Germans had a lot of room to attack, which led to a quick goal. Already at the 11th minute, a penalty was awarded for breaking the rules on Mario Goetze. Thomas Muller approached the ball and on the 12th minute sent the first ball into the goal of the Portuguese.
After the first goal, the national team of Cristiano Ronaldo did not add to the game. The Germans continued to have a total advantage, while the Portuguese had only Nani's long-range strike in the first half. After another attack of the Germans, a corner was appointed, after which Hummels sent the second ball into the goal of Portugal with his head. 2 - 0 and it looks like the game is done.
But this is not all the troubles that befell the Portuguese. The leading defender Pepe received a red card, and in the condensed time Müller, having issued a double, made the score indecent. 3 - 0 and the teams go for a break.
In the second half, the situation on the field did not change. The Portuguese had another main defender, Coentrao, injured, and Muller, continuing to terrorize Portugal, scored the first hat trick in the world championship in 78 minutes.
Cristiano Ronaldo was not remembered for anything in the match, except for a free kick already when the score was 0 - 4, not in favor of his team. The game of Germany amazed and showed the power of the "German machine", and the Portuguese left an incomprehensible impression. Perhaps they are not so ready for the championship, or it is simply very difficult to play against the background of the murderous Germans. In any case, further matches in the championship will shed light on this question. In the meantime, it is worth stating another defeat at the World Cup - 4 - 0 Germany wins Portugal.
