Germany have been given a relatively easy World Cup qualifying group as per the draw conducted earlier today (December 7, 2020).
Which group are Germany in for 2022 World Cup qualifying?
Germany are in Group J for the 2022 World Cup qualifiers alongside Iceland, Romania, Liechtenstein, North Macedonia and Armenia.
Bayern Munich remained top of the league in Germany after a hard fought 3-3 draw against RB Leipzig. RBL certainly had their chances in a game where they went ahead twice, only for Bayern to fight back on both occasions.
Player ratings for Bayern-RBL from the German Bild newspaper. A good day at the office for Messrs Lewandowski and Coman, but not so much for the rest (6 is a bad rating, 1 is excellent)
Leipzig fell to third in the table as a result of the draw, with Bayer Leverkusen overtaking them in the table following their 3:0 win over S04.
A disappointing result for German champions Bayern Munich, who had to settle for a 1:1 draw over the weekend against Werder Bremen. Interestingly, this was SvW’s fifth consecutive 1:1 Bundesliga result- they seem to be making a habit of that scoreline.
This was a pretty tight game in terms of xG (Bayern 1.57-1.69 Werder), with Bremen actually edging FCB on that stat as well.
Here are the player ratings from Bild- not often that you see Robert Lewandowski get a 5, but this was one such occasion.
(6 very bad, 1 very good in the ratings scale)
