Kroos late goal hands Germany crucial 2-1 victory against Sweden lailasnews
Toni Kroos late goal handed Germany a crucial 2-1 victory against Sweden in their second FIFA 2018 World Cup fixture.
Toni Kroos goal came off a set play after a foul in the closing minutes of stoppage time. Kroos tapped the ball to Marco Reus, who set it up for Kroos to curl the right-footed shot to the far post. Sweden goalkeeper Robin Olsen couldn’t get his hand on it.
Reus scored in the 48th minute to pull Germany even after Ola Toivonen’s goal in the 32nd put the Swedes in front. Germany finished with 10-men after Jerome Boateng was sent off following a second yellow card with about 10 minutes remaining.
It means that Group F will be decided in the final round of fixtures. Germany tackle South Korea and will fancy their chances against the Asian side, who have lost both of their games so far, while Sweden face a difficult task up against a confident Mexico team who have shone at the World Cup so far.
A sensational second half of football! Germany were staring down the barrel of an early exit from the World Cup, trailing at half time, but quickly equalised after the break through Marco Reus.
A draw never looked like it would be enough though and, right at the death, Kroos superbly kept the defending world champions alive and kicking by scoring a stunning free-kick.
