Germany overworked to beat Oman in the final

Forward Niclas Füllkrug scored the winning goal (ST 35m) at the Sultan Qaboos Sports Complex in Oman.

The local team had a great opportunity to score after 26 minutes of the second stage, but striker Muhsen Al Ghassani, with the goal at his disposal, failed to finish.

Germany, world champion four times (1954, 1974, 1990 and 2014), did not forgive through Füllkrug with ten minutes to go, although they completed a discreet performance.

The German coach, Hans-Dieter Flick, had a formation made up of starters and substitutes, to polish details with a view to the World Cup premiere.

Germany formed with: Manuel Neuer; Lukas Klostermann (replaced due to injury), Thilo Kehrer, Matthias Ginter and David Raum; Ilkay Gündogan, Leon Goretzka, Jonas Hofmann, Kai Havertz and Leroy Sané; and Youssoufa Moukoko.

Fullkrug, the scorer of the winning goal, came on at the start of the second half for Moukoko.

Germany is part of group E of the Qatar 2022 World Cup along with Spain, Costa Rica and Japan.
