German in a critical position in front of Costa Rican opponents match day three Group E World Cup 2022. Here are three scenarios for Germany’s qualification for the round of 16 of the 2022 World Cup.
Germany has not shown a really convincing performance so far. Hansi Flick’s team was beaten 1-2 by Japan and drew 1-1 against Spain.
That result left Germany bottom of Group E at the 2022 World Cup. Manuel Neuer and company are below leaders Spain, who have picked up four points, Japan (3 points) and Costa Rica (3 points).
This situation left Germany with no choice but to secure the three points when they faced Costa Rica. On paper, Germany should be able to win against Costa Rica, who lost 0-7 in their opening match against Spain.
If victory can be secured, Germany’s chances of qualifying for the next round are more open. Here are three scenarios in which Germany will qualify for the round of 16 of Group E of the 2022 World Cup:
1. Germany will finish second if Die Mannschaft win over Costa Rica and Spain win over Japan.
2. If Germany win and Spain lose, Germany will need to overturn an eight-goal deficit to progress.
3. If Germany win and Japan draw against Spain, Hansi Flick’s side can go through if they manage to win by more than a one-goal difference over Costa Rica.
