The first half was astonishing. Germany has clearly outperformed their opponent. Germany is carrying on with a strong lead against Scotland with a 3-0 score and is in complete control of the situation after the first half of the match has culminated. Havertz scored the last goal before in the extra 1 minute given before halftime.

The UEFA Euro 2024
The wait for UEFA Euro 2024 is finally over and it is set to open with its host Germany playing against Scotland in a Group A match at the Allianz Arena, which is the famed home ground of Bayern Munich in Munich.
The big game was preceded by an opening ceremony where the German Football Association and UEFA honoured the illustrious German player and coach Franz Backenbauer who unfortunately took his final breath earlier this year.
The 2020 event was rescheduled to 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Italy holds the title as defending champions after clinching victory in the Euro 2020 final against England, triumphing in a penalty shootout. Numerous teams are optimistic about their chances in this year’s tournament, which appears notably competitive.
The Arena
The Allianz Football Arena is one of the most iconic modern stadiums in Germany because of its visually captivating plastic panel shell exterior that marvelously changes colour for matches that happen after sun down. It has the capacity to host approximately 66,000 individuals.
German football supporters hadn’t assembled in their national colours on home turf since hosting the 2006 FIFA World Cup. Although Scots might have been more musically inclined in Munich, Germans congregated in far greater numbers outside the famed Allianz Arena, the home stadium of Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich.
The Line Up
Germany’s starting XI: Manuel Neuer (GK), Maximilian Mittelstadt, Antonio Rudiger, Jonathan Tah, Joshua Kimmich, Toni Kroos, Ilkay Gundogan (C), Robert Andrich, Florian Wirtz, Kai Havertz, Jamal Musiala.
