🚨 Leon Goretzka refused to take a penalty during Germany’s shootout defeat to Paraguay. 😳🇩🇪
After Manuel Neuer kept Germany alive by saving Fabián Balbuena’s spot-kick, Joshua Kimmich searched for someone to take the next penalty.
First Goretzka, the most experienced player, hesitated, so Kimmich asked Anton, Brown and Thiaw, who also declined. Kimmich once again tried to get Goretzka to take it but he refused.
It left Jonathan Tah to step up despite never taking a senior penalty in his career.
Tah blazed his effort over the bar before Paraguay scored their next kick to dump Germany out of the World Cup.

With Sweden starting with bergvall and Ayari in the middle against france i give us even less of a chance. In what world doesn't they get destroyed by the france midfield. I really hope i am wrong.

🚨🧤 Kasper Schmeichel: "They say all the balls are the same. They are NOT. The thing about the World Cup ball is the construction, it's four panels this time. There's no stitching in it - it's all bonded together."
"When you mix that in with the different weathers, the air density, there's less drag on the ball, which means it doesn't spin as much, but it also means I find it a split second faster and I think we're seeing that a little bit."
"There's a couple of goals where you're seeing keepers getting close to it - Pickford, with the first goal of the Croatia scores - and you've got Luca Zidane against Lionel Messi and even Edouard Mendy against Mbappe."
"The thing about this ball is that we want to see goals, so they build balls to score goals." (@5liveSport)
