FIFA World Cup 2022 elimination of Germany: The drama in Qatar
Germany defeated Costa Rica 4-2 in their final Group E match, but Japan's unexpected victory over Spain prevented them from moving on to the World Cup knockout rounds.
Even though Germany's national football team defeated Costa Rica 4-2 in its final Group E match on Friday, they were eliminated from the FIFA World Cup 2022 in Qatar.
Germany, four-time champions, exited the FIFA World Cup in the group stage for the second time in a row, which was shocking given their position as a superpower in the sport and the amount of excellent players on their roster.
Despite their unexpected loss from the Russian 2018 World Cup in the group stage, Hansi Flick's Germany was among the favorites going into the FIFA World Cup 2022 in Qatar.
Given that Costa Rica and Japan are both regarded as underdogs in international football, Germany was predicted to breeze through the FIFA World Cup 2022 group stage after being placed in Group E with Spain, Costa Rica, and Japan in Qatar.
Germany and Spain both finished with four points because of the combination of results. Still, the latter finished ahead of the Germans thanks to a higher goal difference (+6 for Spain and +1 for Germany), qualifying for the knockout rounds as the second-place team.
The abrupt departures have some intriguing parallels. Germany was eliminated from the World Cup in Russia in the final group match thanks to two extra-time goals by South Korea, and Japan, another Asian team, will be responsible for Germany's demise in Qatar in 2022.
