Sweden and Germany face off in crucial Group F match
The Germans are in serious need of a win after slipping up in their World Cup opener.
Referee misses penalty for Sweden’s Marcus Berg
How did the ref not call for VAR on this? It’s a clear penalty. Sweden fans are rightfully furious.

Germany vs. Sweden lineups
Recognizing the problems that his team had against Mexico, Germany coach Jogi Löw has made big changes. Mesut Özil and Sami Khedira will sit on the bench, while Marco Reus and Sebastian Rudy enter. Expect Rudy to sit deep in a true defensive midfield role, while Thomas Müller is likely to move inside to a central attacking midfield position. Sweden has made a change too, bringing in Victor Lindelöf after he was unavailable for their first match.
And so, to our final match of the day...
