The reigning world champions - DT Germany will visit Worthersee stadion Stadium of the Austrian Open. The ball started rolling... 100 minutes later than expected due to bad weather conditions.
Although rated higher, Germany took the lead in the 11th minute. Taking advantage of goalkeeper Siebenhandl's careless pass, Mesut Ozil brought joy to the away team's fans.
Germany held the ball quite well in the first half, not giving Austrian attackers like Marko Arnautovic much room to play. However, in the final minutes, goalkeeper Manuel Neuer had to work more actively. If not counting the practice matches, this is the first match since September last year.
His work efficiency has increased significantly after work. Austria decided to push up the attack while the German defense played uncertainly.
The gap was leveled when the second half passed nearly 8 minutes. Starting from a corner kick by David Alaba, central defender Hinteregger fired a left volley from a tight angle, giving Neuer no chance to block.
A bigger surprise came in the 69th minute. Stefan Lainer tried to pass the ball to Alessandro Schopt to run down and finish quickly, raising the score to 2-1.
Coach Joachim Low decided to let the remaining attacking stars such as Draxler, Marco Reus... onto the field but Germany could not find an equalizer.
Both the German attackers and defenders have had performances under their power. They need to improve many things in the friendly match with Saudi Arabia at 0:30 on June 9.
At Wembley, DT England faced another team that also participated in the 2018 VCK World Cup - DT Nigeria.
The early advantage came to DT Anh in the 8th minute. In a corner kick, center back Gary Cahill headed the ball into the opening goal. Coach Gareth Southgate's students then completely controlled the game with consecutive opportunities to play away at the opponent's goal.
It was not until the 39th minute that the striker received a lot of expectations - Harry Kane had his first shot. However, his dangerous long-range kick brought England a double. This was the final goal of the first half.
With only about 2 minutes passed in the second half, Nigeria found a goal to shorten the score. After Odion Ighalo's shot against the post, Alex Iwobi successfully rushed in to score.
He was still the better team. However, the efforts of the main striker and those who came on in the second half like Rashford did not give them more goals. Therefore, they left the field with a 2-1 victory.
In the early morning of June 6, the England team also had another friendly match with the Costa Rica team before participating in the 2018 VCK World Cup.
