Germany has cruised into the final eight at Euro 2016, easily accounting for Slovakia with a 3-nil victory.
There’s no more second chances as Germany and Slovakia play for a place in the quarter-finals at the Stade Pierre Mauroy. Join The Roar from 2am AEST for live scores.
Topping Group C without conceding a single goal, 2014 World Cup winners Germany are still yet to reach their full potential this competition.
After defeating Ukraine 2-nil in their opening fixture, Germany were held to a nil-all draw with Poland. The Germans ended the group stage with a 1-nil win over Northern Ireland, and despite their dominance their pitch only managed to score the one goal.
The Germans will also have revenge on their mind, after going down to Slovakia 3-1 in an international friendly last May. There is no doubt that Germany will be searching for goals in order to assert themselves in this competition.
After scraping through to the Round of 16 by holding a dominant England side to a nil-all draw in their last fixture, Slovakia have yet another mountain to climb.
Slovakia lost their opening game 2-1 to Wales, however they managed to earn three points with a shock 2-1 win over Russia.
Both sides have played at the Stade Pierre Mauroy in this competition, and both sides have managed to earn three points.
Slovakia’s ability to hold out at the back and counter will be their best chance for victory, but Germany’s passing ability will give them all they can handle, and more.
Predicton
Germany 2 – 0 Slovakia
