Ecuador 2-1 Germany: The Defending Semi-Finalists Are Out at the Group Stage

[ProperJobs89]

Ecuador have knocked Germany out of the World Cup at the group stage. Germany won seven nil against Curacao in their opener. They beat Ivory Coast 2-1 in their second match. Then Ecuador beat them 2-1 in their third. Germany finish third in Group E behind Ecuador and Ivory Coast. Out in the group stage. Again. Germany went out in the 2018 group stage as defending champions. Now they go out in 2026 as team who were expected to go deep. Ecuador's winner came from Valencia who has been the surprise story of the group. Germany had more possession more shots and still lost. The football gods have a sense of humour and it's often at Germany's expense.
