In Group E, Spain will face Germany, with both teams getting off to a rocky start in their respective World Cup campaigns. It couldn't have been any better for Spain after defeating Costa Rica 7-0 in one of the tournament's best performances so far. However, for Germany, the mood could not have been any different after they gave up a lead late in the game to lose a 2-1 loss to Japan, putting them on the brink of being kicked out. Sportmail takes you through all you need to hear about below as the match is near.

After Germany's humiliating World Cup loss to Japan, they have been savaged by the media, with Chelsea's Kai Havertz and coach Hansi Flick strong criticized. Havertz received their second lowest possible score in their ratings for their 2-1 loss in Qatar on Wednesday, leaving Germany hanging on the possibility of another early departure. This embarrassing score was also given to Serge Gnabry and defensive trio Niklas Sule, David Raum, and Nico Schlotterbeck, who received a 5 star rating for his game plan.

Japan stunned Germany by defeating four-time champions Germany in their first game of the Qatar World Cup. Germany took the lead in the first half in echoes of Argentina's humiliating loss to Saudi Arabia yesterday, but the underdogs maintained a 2-1 win after a spirited fight. Germany now faces an uphill battle against the Group of Death, with Costa Rica and fellow World Cup winners Spain playing in their group.

OLI GAMP AT THE SULTAN STADIUM: If this was an indication of Germany's potential as a team at the World Cup, then their competitors in Qatar would have stood down. Hansi Flick's guys got the job done on the night in their friendly against Oman on Wednesday night, but it wasn't an easy challenge - and there's still a lot of work to do. Oman, the team that made the world's best-ranked team in FIFA's top 25, more than fought, but they may have scored fewer goals if their forwards had been more efficient. Niclas Fullkrug's close-range strike gives Die Mannschaft a 1-0 victory, but Flick has a lot to consider as his team struggled to get out of third gear and evidently struggled with the weather. This was more for Flick to assess the squad's fitness, get used to 90 minutes in the Middle Eastern heat, and tinker with his set-up, but he'll know his best team can't afford to play at the same intensity seen from his boys at the Sultan Qaboos Stadium.

At an international level, not many teams can beat Germany. However, Spain has a history of doing exactly as a result of the last two decades. Spain has come out on top four times in the last seven meetings between the two teams, losing only once. Spain has defeated their opponents in the Euro 2008 final and the 2010 World Cup semi-finals in South Africa during this time. Matches have often been decided by the unexpected result, with little to distinguish the European giants. That's until Spain's last game in the Nations League in November 2020, when they defeated Spain 6-0 in a thrillingly one-sided match.

Borussia Monchengladbach cruised to a 3-0 victory over RB Leipzig, leaping up the Bundesliga table, aided by Jonas Hofmann's two first half goals. After another Champions League loss in midweek, Ramy Bensebaini added a third in the second half to numb RB Leipzig's wounds. Daniel Farke's side had no doubt about the three points, and after the international break, they will fly to Werder Bremen.
