Team: Costa Rica vs Germany
Match time: 12-2 03:00
At three o'clock in the morning Beijing time on December 2, the third round of the World Cup will usher in a much-anticipated match. Germany, who have performed poorly in this World Cup, will face Costa Rica, who are weaker in the group, in the final round of life and death. For the German team, this game, the team can only have a glimmer of life if they take all three points, otherwise, the team will be ironclad. In terms of mentality, the German team is undoubtedly under a lot of pressure. As long as the team wins in the last game, they have a chance to advance to the knockout rounds, but only if they win. Although Costa Rica is not competitive enough, but the last game was a victory over Japan, but also to impress the outside world, this time against Germany, can they create a surprise again? Let's wait and see!

Costa Rica lost 7-0 at the feet of Spain in their first game, and it was thought that they would be eliminated early, but they beat Japan a surprising 1-0 last time, not only to earn a breath, but also to greatly increase the team's hopes of qualifying. However, objectively speaking, Costa Rica's strength is still far from Germany, this event let alone win, even Baoping has a huge difficulty, and whether they can finally qualify for the qualification, in addition to their over-level performance, but also hope to have a little luck to help.

Germany
Germany had a poor first game, beaten by Japan with the first goal, and the team was on the verge of elimination, but fortunately Japan also suffered a cold loss in the second round, which gave Germany renewed hope of promotion, and if they can beat Costa Rica, they have a good chance of qualifying for one of them. And even more favorable for the German team, they have been plagued by a lack of a strong centre-forward, but Phil Kruger proved his ability to take on the role with a goal last time, and it is expected that the Bremen center will have a good chance of being reused by Frick when this match needs to be tackled.
