Germany the defending champions started the FIFA 18 on a disastrous note. The four-time champions lost to Mexico. No one thought that Germans would lose to Mexico in this fashion. The match was played at Luzhniki stadium where the fans of Germany were disappointed to see that the champions have lost the match.
One of the reasons was that the seasoned player Ozil did not pay well. Ozil could not resist the Mexican attack and gave away the goal very easily. The viewers booed Ozil and could not overcome that. He was disturbed and could not play well.
Germany tried and struggled to put an equaliser against Mexico but that never happened. The Germans failed miserably.
There was a lack of outfield leadership and with some senior players missing their touch, the Germans struggled to contain the onslaught from the Mexico team.
Werner the golden boot winner is yet to come to form. He could not convert any chances are create any opportunities for the team and they had to lose finally. It was like the unthinkable happening. The World champions were shattered when the Mexicans attacked in a systematic fashion with speed and skill.
The Germans could not close the gap and could not come back after that single goal and finally lost the match. The Mexico players played with the lightning strike and kept attacking from the centre and all sides. The Germans struggled to move around and aim at the goal posts.
